SuperGrans Dunedin Charitable Trust

Let's Get Cooking!

It's all on here at SuperGrans SuperSkills Dunedin with our Cooking on a Budget Course - From 30th July for 7 weeks 10am - 12pm.

Get in Touch to Get Cooking with Us!

Deepest Thanks to Altrusa Taieri for your support!

Altrusa International of Taieri were fortunate enough to receive a grant from the Altrusa International Foundation, to support local community groups with literacy based projects. Anne and Glenda from Altrusa International of Taieri delivered fifteen baking packs to SuperGrans, to be gifted to people who attend cooking classes with the objective of learning new cooking and baking skills to help support themselves, and their whanau. Printer cartridges were also donated to enable recipes to be printed for use in classes and for attendees to take home to use in the future.

Our new Playgroup is on again this Monday, 22 July. All ages from newborn to nearly 5’s are welcome and its great social contact for you and your preschooler/baby. 👶👧👦
🌨❄️This time there will be a winter weather art activity for the little ones of an age to do, but you won’t feel the winter with our newly installed heatpump making the Plunket Rooms lovely and cosy. We would love for you to come join us, for a chat and a cuppa. ☕

Angie modeling the fruits of her labour - Awesome! The Intro to Sewing Course has been fantastic, such goodness... We're picking back up again from 19th August.

Hello Beautiful People! Here's our Schedule for July and August - See you there!

A MASSIVE thanks to the Staff at Woolworth's Dunedin Central for their Very Generous Donation! This will provide invaluable support for our wool and sewing.
