Around 300 people turned up for the first Community Fun Day at Mahurangi East Community Centre on August 7.
Organiser Moana Hehepoto says she was “blown away” by the response, which exceeded all expectations. She plans to make the Fun Day a regular mid-year event.
“Children enjoyed the bouncy castles, cookie decorating, candy floss, nails and hair braiding, sausage sizzle and more,” she says.
Moana is the regular organiser of free community Christmas lunches, where all who would appreciate some company or are struggling to provide for their families are welcome to come along. She plans another Christmas lunch this year for the fifth time.
