The sun was shining at Washbourn Gardens on Sunday for a free family fun day which saw kids celebrating the end of the first week of their school holidays.
The event was part of a series of events in the Tasman district for the school holidays which is organised by the Nelson & Tasman Parks Programme which is delivered by Community Leisure Management, Nelson City Council and Tasman District Council.
Event spokesperson, Macey Barrow, says the event paved a way for families to give their tamariki leisure with no barriers amid challenges like the cost of living.
“We’ve got some rock painting and bookmark designing and then we also bought the activity trailer down so there is all the outdoor activities as well, like bowling and frisbee,” she says.
The trailer also provided kids with hopscotch, chess, skittles, and mega board games like Connect 4.
Nelson & Tasman Parks Programme will host a free Amazing Race at Faulkner Bush Reserve in Wakefield on 28 April between 12pm and 2pm.
