Lollipops Christmas Party 2020

17 December 2020

Tamariki and Whānau, the team at Lollipops Patten Street want to thank you for joining us at our Christmas Party this year.

We greatly appreciated that you all joined us, bringing nana’s, grandpa’s, brothers and sisters with you. It really made our day seeing everyone connect and enjoy the party together - riding the ponies, visiting the farm animals, visiting Santa in his grotto and keeping us on our toes dishing up a sausage sizzle (for 250 people! A new Lollipops best!)

Thank you all for your kind and positive feedback. As always, it really makes the event extra special and means the extra effort and time put into planning is so worth while.

We can’t wait for next year!

Noho ora mai, the Patten Street Team
