Sometimes, it is important to take a little break from everyday routines and make time for ourselves. With our new initiative, Monday Mugs, we wanted to create a special space for the mums in our Kindergarten community – a place where they could slow down, relax and enjoy some time for themselves.

Our very first Monday Mugs gathering brought mums together for a relaxed morning of yoga, coffee and conversation.

We were delighted to welcome Maria from Moove, who started the morning with a gentle chair yoga session, giving everyone an opportunity to stretch, unwind and recharge.

Afterwards, a barista from Folded Forest served freshly prepared coffee, creating the perfect opportunity for the mums to connect, chat and get to know one another.

More than just a coffee morning, Monday Mugs is about building connections and strengthening our parent community. We believe that creating opportunities for parents to meet, feel welcome and build friendships is an important part of a thriving school community.

And this is just the beginning! We hope Monday Mugs will grow into a regular monthly tradition at IGS. What starts as an initiative for our Kindergarten mums could gradually develop into a gathering place for mums and parents from across the entire IGS community. Whether it involves coffee and conversation, a little self-care, inspiring activities or simply spending time together, Monday Mugs aims to create space for connection, community and shared experiences.

We look forward to many more Monday Mugs mornings together!
