Imaginations will run wild at Hollard Gardens' Family Corner with the addition of The Hollard Pearl, a new pirate ship ready to take young visitors on endless adventures.
Local folk trio Turkey the Bird - Adrian Whelan, Sol Bear Coulton and Andre Manella at the Tūpare River Flat.
Designed and constructed by local craftsman Lars Binsbergen, The Hollard Pearl promises an immersive experience for children and families, enhancing the already vibrant atmosphere of the Family Corner. To mark the occasion, a pop-up pirate party was held, with prizes awarded for the best-dressed pirates.
Regional Gardens Manager Stuart Robertson expressed his excitement, saying, "It's a joy to see the community come together to celebrate this new addition to our playground."
