Trust Tairawhiti have asked us to get anyone who attended our Christmas event to do this survey pretty please.. now just to be clear - there is only one question about our event. The rest is to do with "wellbeing". Completely optional to do :)

Your response would be greatly appreciated.

πŸŽ„ Here's our Parade route! Details below:

⏰️ The Parade starts from the Peel St Bridge roundabout, and will be heading off at 4pm sharp, Sunday 7th December.
🦺 Make sure you stay off the Parade Traffic lane, keep back at all times - we know you want a good look, but that's why the parade route is so long, so that everyone can get a good spot 🦺 There will be small, large, and BIG vehicles, we want the parade to be safe. Use common sense!
β˜€οΈ Sunday is going to be hot! Slip, slop, slap and wrap! πŸ•ΆπŸ‘•πŸ§’
🎧 Parents, there may be sudden loud noises such as vehicles or sirens, please bring earmuffs for your kiddos if you think they might need them.
🍬 Some groups will be throwing lollies into the crowd - don't come out onto the road for them!
πŸ₯³ The fun continues at Marina & Kelvin Parks after the Parade, the grounds will be open from 4:30pm with the official event kick off at 5pm ✨️

πŸ—Ί Okay everyone, here's maps of where things are going to be for the It's a Gizzy Christmas Community Event!
πŸŽ„ We left our temporary tattoo/christmas tree decorations tent off the map because we're unsure where it will go - but it'll be there!
πŸ“Έ The photo backdrops may also move, but they'll be there and actually usable this year πŸ™Œ
✨️ Did I mention FREE temporary tattoos and FREE Christmas tree decorations for the kids?
🌭 Our FREE sausage sizzle is for children only - no adults in line will be served unless your littlies are too little to order for themselves. Why? Because it's for the kids! There are heeeaps of food trucks on Marina Park for you to purchase your kai, or BYO from home - picnic styles 🧺
