Parents' Place is a family community center run by Angie Chang, a Canadian living in Taiwan with her three children. Angie started Parents' Place as a place where English-speaking families can meet and share experiences, as well as letting their children meet other kids in similar situations. We have children who are homeschooled, children attending local public school, children attending international schools, babies, toddlers, and children up to Junior High School age, all coming along to events.
We are
excited to offer four workshops over summer! Dates: July 15th (Monday)
and July 17th (Wednesday). July 22nd (Monday) and July 24th (Wednesday).
Dates are tentative based on securing six students. Please sign up for
the first workshop by Thursday, July 11th.
Each workshop will run for three hours, from 2pm until 5pm.
All workshops are suitable for children four (4) years and older. Workshops are all in English.
Cost is NTD1,000 per workshop. There will also be a NTD50-100 fee to cover materials each workshop.
The four workshops are independent, so you can come to one or all workshops.
Minimum of six (6) sign ups are needed to offer the workshop. Payment can be made on the day, but prepayment at Parents' Place is preferable. The teacher (Sunghee Min) is running these on good faith, so please make sure you will come to the workshop and pay before signing up.
To sign up, either email Sunghee at sungheemin@yahoo.com, send us a message on Parents' Place's FB page, or email me (Katrina) at kbtaiwan@gmail.com. Please leave a way to contact you (email/tel.)
