Tumble Time has arrived in Papamoa. Each Wednesday morning, happy children noises will reverberate through Papamoa Community Centre following the introduction of the popular pre-school activity programme.

Tumble Time is already held at the Queen Elizabeth Youth Centre in Tauranga on Wednesdays and at ASB Arena every Tuesday and Friday and Bay Venues programmes manager Robyn King says there was demand from parents to offer it in Papamoa as well.

"Tumble Time offers activities and socialisation for pre-schoolers, but is also a great networking time for mothers," Robyn says.

Exercise activities include slides, climbing blocks, balls, goal shoots, hula hoops and more.

Tumble Time at Papamoa will be held between 9am and 10.30am on Wednesdays. Papamoa Toy Library toys will be made available for the children attending.

Bay Venues also stages Gym Gility classes for older pre-schoolers on Wednesdays at the ASB Arena. Gym Gility will be expanding to include activities for the younger siblings as well.
