What’s on Today? Easter

While the severe weather warnings have been lifted for Tauranga, people are being advised to prepare for another day of rain.

The annual Grower Direct Easter egg hunt is happening again in Te Puna today, with children searching for chocoloate goodies while adults enjoy a sausage and looking through the array of homemade sauces for sale.

Read here about last year's Easter fun.


Children will be hunting for chocolate goodies in Te Puna and Greerton Village today. File photo.

The Greerton Village is planning an Epic Easter Egg Hunt for children up to 10-years-old or for those after good book to read this weekend, check out the Tauranga Rotary Easter Book Sale.

The Easter egg hunt is scheduled to start at 11am in the Greerton Village Square, with doors open to the annual book sale at 9am at the old Mount Action Centre on Triton Ave.
