Party animals hit the Adelaide Zoo for the annual Variety Kids' Easter Picnic run by the Ladies of Variety
More than 1500 children who are sick, disadvantaged or have special needs, along with 840 carers and representatives from schools and organisations around the state, attended the Adelaide Zoo for the annual Variety Easter Picnic thanks to the Ladies of Variety volunteer committee. Children were treated to entertainment, lunch and snacks throughout the day.
Those in attendance enjoyed: Acrobatic Bouncers, Origami Stilt Creatures, roaming Easter Bunny, Variety Mascot as well as all of the resident zoo animals. The purpose of these events is to give children a day out to enjoy activities just like other children!
The Picnic would not be possible without the dedicated volunteers and our generous supporters: Adelaide Zoo, Cochrane’s, Kytons Bakery Australia, Mercedes College, Rotary Club and Don Aston. Thank you also to the Ladies of Variety committee for their amazing work in organising these fantastic events.
