Donuts for Dads is a ritual we have every year here at Howick Kindergarten leading into Fathers day. We like to acknowledge our Fathers and Grandfathers at this time of the year, together with their children and grandchildren. This is a morning they join together for a donut and a cuppa, while also making connections to other Dads and Grandads as they enjoy the relaxed morning sharing in conversations, and engaging in play with the children within a non hurried space. This truly is a special time and enjoyed by all. Children develop an understanding that their family connnections are valued and respected also. We are grateful for all our dads and grandads and those that step into these spaces for our precious tamariki.
