On the (Easter egg) hunt for some fun

It’s a most egg-cellent time for Wyndham kids.

Hundreds of children are expected to descend on Werribee Park this Friday for the annual Cadbury Easter Egg Hunt, which has raised more than $1 million for The Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal in the past 18 years.

In what is touted as the largest Easter egg hunt in Australia, children aged three to 12 can take part in one of the many egg hunts throughout the day, enjoy rides, picnic in the park and say hello to the Easter Bunny.

This year, proceeds raised will specifically go towards funding new infant warmers for critically ill patients and much-needed resuscitation and care equipment.

Sisters Sienna and Talia (pictured) did some recon before the big hunt, getting a few pointers from the Easter Bunny himself and his helper, Alex.
