Rockingham's teddy bear picnic returns

The City of Rockingham's annual Teddy Bears' Picnic is returning to Fantasy park in Waikiki on Wednesday, October 25th.

This free event is delivered through a partnership between the City of Rockingham and the Rockingham Early Years Group. 

The Teddy Bears' Picnic aims to give families with children under the age of five a chance to enjoy a fun day filled with free, age appropriate activities. 

This years event will include face painting, an animal farm, games, and live stage performances. 

Attendees will also have the opportunity to speak directly with service providers and participate in the City's community consultation to inform their next Strategy for Early Years, Children and Young People. 

City of Rockingham Mayor, Deb Hamblin, encouraged families to pack a picnic and join the fun at Fantasy Park. 

"Over the years the annual Teddy Bears' Picnic has become one of the City's most popular events for families," Mayor Hamblin said. 

"The Strategy for Early Years, Children and Young People will guide the City in its focus and support of the sector over the next seven years, and I would like to encourage all families to participate in the upcoming consultation."

"Make sure you come and see our friendly volunteers, let us know what your priorities are, and complete a survey to go into a draw for the chance to win a $100 gift card.”

The Teddy Bear's Picnic will run from 9.30am to 12pm at Fantasy Park in Waikiki.
