The Warehouse Kiwi was a big hit with younger shoppers.

The Warehouse, Warehouse Stationery and Noel Leeming stores in Warkworth were officially opened on May 25.

The opening events included four days of community sausage sizzles hosted by Kawau Coastguard, Warkworth Lions Club, Springboard and Warkworth Scouts.

They raised $4210 in total across the four days. The Warehouse will match the fundraising bringing the final total to $8420.

Other groups interested in fundraising are invited to contact the store for more information. The Warehouse will provide the BBQ and the gas bottles, as well as a few of its own Market Kitchen sauces.

Matakana School also benefitted from the opening celebration with a $1000 shopping spree for its school fundraising auction.
