Playing outside just got a whole lot more messy – and fun – for the kids at Wellsford Plunket, thanks to the donation of a new ‘mud kitchen’ from the local Lions Club.
Wellsford Lions president Stephen Corry was on hand to see the new wooden play unit put through its paces last month.
Fundraising coordinator Tania Harrison says that while the mud kitchen is a huge hit with the children, her attention now has to turn to the full-sized indoor version.
“All our fundraising this year will be for a new kitchen,” she says. “That’s our next big thing, it needs a complete overhaul and it will probably cost around $16,000.”
She says that once the work has been completed, it will be a huge asset for the community.
“There are not many places that have a room this size and a fully-fenced garden and play area,” she says. “People can already hire it for kids parties, but a new kitchen will make it so much better.”
