Friday was our first Parent Meetup Group and we had a great time! All guardians who attended received a first aid kit and learned more about our social emotional programs at Wayne Hills. It was a fun time to talk and get to know each other. A big thank you to Embrace for hosting our meeting! Let us know if you'd like to attend in the future!
