🌈 Little Island Carnival – Part of EcoFest Waiheke 2026

Nau mai haere mai. Join us for a colourful, family-friendly day celebrating all the incredible opportunities available for tamariki on Waiheke!
The Little Island Carnival brings together local child-focused organisations, early childhood centres, community groups, and whānau for a day of play, connection, and discovery.
Do you wonder what’s on the motu for your tamariki?
This is a fun way to find out! 💛
KOHA entry, with proceeds going towards Playcentre’s fundraising efforts.
✨ What to expect on the day:
• Kai & treats
• Kids Zone play activities
• Face painting
• Sensory & nature experiences
• Playground & obstacle fun
• Waiheke Circus
• Market & info stalls
• Zero Waste Station & “Good to Go” reusable cup service
… and more to be announced!
This event proudly sits within EcoFest Waiheke 2026, supported by the Waiheke Resources Trust. Together we’re celebrating sustainability, creativity, and community care. We encourage everyone to bring reusable bottles, catch the bus with a short walk or ride a bike, minimise waste, and enjoy the day in true eco-warrior style. 🌿♻️
✨ Fundraising for our community:
Many of our island’s child-focused organisations will be running kai stalls, games, or markets to support their fundraising efforts — so come along, eat, play, shop, and support local!
💬 Want to be involved?
If you’re part of (or know of) a child-focused or education organisation that would love a stall at the carnival, please contact Oriini at [email protected].
Bring the whole whānau for a day full of joy, learning, and connection — we can’t wait to see you there! 💙
Mā te wā 👋
