Mother's groups in Perth - I am looking to meet up with some other Polish mothers

Hello everyone
I am just new to the forum, and also just new to Perth. I live NOR and I am looking to meet up with some other Polish mothers for a small playgroup. My husband and I are trying to teach our son Polish - and I would like him to learn that more people in the world speak Polish then just his mother and father!

Also it would nice to meet some more people in Perth. We have been here for three months now, and outside of playgroup and my husbands work we don't know too many people.

Cheers

Dorota

Hi Malenka .I live in NOR too.Been in Perth ofr 3 years and have 6 months old son whom i would love too teach Polish.Maybe we can meet for a coffee.

Hi Dorota and Malenka

I live NOR, Mount Lawley and will be having my first baby in January 2011. I would like to know if there are any polish mums groups/playgroups in Perth?

Maybe coffee (decaff) sometime??

Czy ktos tu mowi po polsku??

Just a few suggestions.

There is a Polish church in Maylands called Our Lady Queen of Poland which many of the Perth Polish community attend. There are also various Polish clubs ie Cracovia soccer club and General Sikorski club in Bellevue (near Midland).

There are a couple of organizations providing assistance to the elderly in Perth namely Rainbow and Umbrella. Although some of the groups I mention are older generations, perhaps if you contact these organizations they may be aware of any other groups around aimed mothers of young children. I believe there are still dance troups and Polish school for children to learn Polish and I'm sure someone from Rainbow will be able to give you contact details for Polish school. Rainbow is in 8th Avenue, Maylands just a few doors down from the church.

I don't have young children anymore so I'm not sure what is out there with regard to Polish Playgroups but unless something is run through the Polish community then I would suspect you either need to attend mainstream playgroups or organize your own play sessions. If you attend church then perhaps you could talk to the priests about having a playgroup session after church or in the church hall.

good luch

For some reason posters are using Polish language in this thread. Please don't as your post will be removed

Hi ladies

Sorry it has taken a while to answer - I have recently had baby number 2, and it has been a crazy couple of months... please email me on dorotakubuj@gmail if you are still interested in a playgroup. I would love to meet up for coffee or tea.

Cheers for now.

Hello,
I've got almost 3 year old son and would love to get in touch with Polish mums here in Perth. Are there any Polish playgroups for kids you know of? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Take care,
Ewelina

Ewelina,
see my post above!!! mothers' group is on Fridays.

Hello, I am Polish and a mother of two kids ages 6 and 8. I am planning to move to Perth in 9-12 months from the US. I wanted some advice with regard to which neighborhoods and schools I should look at. Where are the best places to live? are public schools OK with regard to academic quality? are some better then others? if not, which private schools to look at? I would greatly appreciate some advise.

Merged: Polish Perth playgroup -NOR

Hi everyone
I've been in Perth over four years. We have a 6 year old and a 3 month baby. I can't make the kings park meets on Friday afternoons as I have school pick up.

Having had baby number two would really love to make some polish friends. I was born in the UK ( both parents polish) and my hubby is English.

Is there a playgroup nor ? Any interest to form one ?
Hope to hear from you

Hi Inga - not sure about any polish meet up groups but if you're keen to catch up let me know.

Cheers

Hi, my baby was born in November too. I have just moved to Perth from NZ and don't really know anybody here. Would like to meet in cafe sometime. My email is: owieczkayellowatop.pl
