Toy Library president Eileen Brady said the Easter Egg Hunt regularly attracts more than 60 children.

“The Easter Egg Hunt is a wonderful community event that brings our young families together,” Mrs Brady said.

“It is also a fundraiser for the Toy Library, to enable our volunteers to continue to upgrade our huge selection of toys, games, and puzzles.”

The Toy Library is open to all families across the region every Wednesday from 10am to 11.30am, with free entry. It is located in the EGHS Community Health Centre in Girdlestone Street Ararat.

Toys can be borrowed from the Toy Library and it is also open to play time for mums, dads, grandparents, carers and their children at this time, with a range of indoor and outdoor toys and play equipment.

To register for the Easter Egg Hunt, please contact Jodie Holwell on 5352 9387 or email jodie.holwell@eghs.net.au and leave your name, phone number and number of children attending.
