Cleft New Zealand’s new brand and updated website is on its way. It will still provide all the information and support mechanisms you need as a parent, but the new site also caters for young people, adults and professionals. 

We are launching this on Monday March 8th @ 7pm @ Manukau City Council.

If you are a family member, a young person over 13 years or a professional working in the field.  You are invited. 

Tickets are limited, so it is a first in first served basis.

To request your ticket

• E-mail:  susan@cleft.org.nz
• Phone: 0800 4 CLEFT  (0800 425 338)

Hope to see you there.

If you live in the Tauranga area, Davina has organised your very own Xmas Party.  It is a fantastic way to meet other families and let our kids meet other children just like them. 

We would love to see you there.

• Saturday December 19th
• 11am - 1pm
• Welcome Bay Community Hall, Welcome Bay, Tauranga
• BBQ & fun

The next coffee group will be held on Thursday November 26th from 10-12pm at Beena’s house in Epsom. Please phone 0800 4CLEFT or email us on info@cleft.org.nz for more details.

Southern Stars Charitable Trust has offered us free tickets to How the Gnomes Stole Christmas.

These events are a great way to introduce your children to live theatre, and have some fun.

If you would like some free tickets for your family, please ring Susan on 0800 425 338 or e-mail susan@cleft.org.nz (more…)

4 week olds to 13 year olds came to celebrate Xmas with their families.    It is great to see the kids getting to know each other and parents swapping stories. 

We would like to thank Barbara MacLean for organising this year’s Xmas party and our generous list of sponsors.  (more…)

We are redesigning the website, and need your help to make it look more interesting.

Have you got

• Great action shots of your child, young person or if you are an adult - yourself ?
• We want pictures of you doing things - everyday stuff, your favourite activities.  Anything that shows your personality.

We will use these to bring our website to life, with positive, fun and action packed images of us going about our lives. (more…)
