Nau mai, haere mai to Pick Up Play — a fun, informal sports and free-play activation where the community can join in, get moving, and enjoy simple, active games together in a relaxed, family-friendly environment.
Meet us at the location and look for the activation signage and gazebos set up in a high-traffic area of the park. The Out & About team will have a variety of lawn games and sports equipment ready to go — all provided, all free, and all designed to be easy, enjoyable, and accessible for everyone.
We’ll be on hand to guide games, support participants, and help you jump into the activities at your own pace. Whether you’re keen for a casual throw-around, a quick game with other locals, or just some active fun with the kids, this is the perfect chance to play your way.
Suitable for ages 2+, including families, intergenerational groups, parents with prams, those with disabilities, and anyone with low fitness or limited mobility — Pick Up Play is for everyone.
Come along, give it a go, and enjoy a simple, active, feel-good day in the park!
