West Sydney's biggest easter egg hunt


The Easter Bunny is coming to The Australian Botanic Garden on Saturday 26 March 2016 for what is sure to be one of the biggest egg hunts Sydney’s west has ever seen. The Great Egg Hunt invites children to use a trail map to complete fun challenges, collect chocolate eggs and hunt for their furry Easter friend. 

Adding to the excitement, Australia's favourite confectionary company, Darrell Lea, have come on board as a major sponsor for the family event. The family owned company was a natural fit for the occasion, having originated in Sydney and relocated to Ingleburn.

There will be an importance placed on creating an event inclusive for all children, meaning a range of activities will be available on the day. Vision Australia are also an event partner and have created activities to include visually impaired children as well.  

Other Easter themed activities on the day will include: a Bunny Hop sack race, a plant perfume guessing game, the chance to meet the Easter bunny or hold baby chicks thanks to Henny Penny Hatching and the egg or seed challenge which incorporates seeds as a symbol of new life.

Families are encouraged to make a day out of their visit, to pack a picnic and enjoy a walk through the gardens or a tour of the PlantBank. The PlantBank will be hosting ‘Seed, Art, Lab: Seeds through an Artists Lens’ an exhibition by artist Sophie Munns and seed pods and drawing materials will be on-hand for children to creatively explore.
