Easter in Hume 2023

Easter 2023 was celebrated with a range of free activities including library story time, colouring-in competitions, free coffee events and visits from the Easter bunny!

Library Storytime

The Easter Bunny made a special appearance at several storytime sessions around Hume City in the week before Easter.

Thank you to the Easter Bunny for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit the storytime sessions at Sunbury Library, Greenvale West Community Centre, Craigieburn Library, Broadmeadows Library and Tullamarine Library.

Coffee and Treats

The Easter Bunny hopped on down to Greenvale Shopping Centre and Campbellfield Plaza on April 1 to hand out Easter Eggs and free coffee and treat vouchers to some lucky shoppers!

The Easter Bunny is standing with the Mayor of Hume City Council. Both are smiling and holding small buckets containing Easter Eggs.

Thank you to our Mayor for hopping down to Campbellfield Plaza to share some Easter treats with shoppers.
