Q3: What would help a family to know about when moving to a new place? 24 hr doctors, 24 hr chemists, contacts of emergency services, things to do in the area on the weekend etc.
Q4: Such as subscribing to mailing lists, check community websites, community notice boards in the shopping centre etc.
Q5: Maybe helping in the weekend working bee, volunteering at the centre, bringing in recycled materials for craft etc.

Hope this helps!

How will you communicate and provide information to Mita and Peter about Anna whilst she is enrolled at the service? (consider things like how you might inform them of her learning and development, interests, incidents etc.)
