Winners have been contacted — Well done and enjoy your goodies! 🐰🥚

We had hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of entries, which is just incredible 🙌 Thank you to everyone who took part.

It’s been amazing seeing kids, friends, and families out and about,
Even braving the rainy days to join in the fun ☔🐣

We hope you all enjoyed the hunt as much as we did putting it together!

🐰🥚 Easter Hunt Hint Time!

From hidden little PLACES to long winding ROADS,
You’ll travel paths with curious 3 word codes.
Some streets you’ll know, some you won’t,
The ones you pass… but notice you don’t.

A dead-end track may lead the way,
To a scenic stroll where bridges lay.
Under and over, keep your sight—
The next clue won’t be far from right.

Some, like the fire station, stand in plain view,
While bus stops nearby may hide one too 👀

If you find the place but no egg can be seen,
Please let us know where it may have been.
Use a landmark—a post or a tree,
The eggs number is not forgotten by me.

Happy hunting! 🐣

🐰🥚 Only 10 more days of hunting to go!

The hampers are packed and ready… now it’s game on 👀
Who’s been keeping track of their numbers?

Which ones are proving the hardest to find? Drop them below and we may be able to provide 3 words of guidance 👇

Happy hunting everyone! 🐣

🐣Arabian swift and Andalusian grand,
🥕Clydesdale strong across the land.
🐇Where these mighty names appear,
🥚Easter eggs are hiding near.

Another egg just gave it's location, guess we better let you know before it hops away!🥚

🌷HINT TIME🌷

We went out for a little neighbourhood drive this afternoon... 😊

A huge THANK YOU to the amazing members of our community who reinstated some of the eggs — we appreciate you! It’s so lovely seeing the community getting involved and keeping the fun alive.

A few eggs had discovered some creative new hiding spots… we tracked them down and returned them to their proper locations. Mission accomplished! 🥚✨

A couple, unfortunately, were nowhere to be found. So #20 will be remade and relocated to a new spot in the area since it seems to enjoy going on little adventures of its own. Keep your eyes peeled for #40 - could be very close by...

Thank you all for being such great sports and for helping make this such a fun and positive neighbourhood activity. Stay tuned… the hunt continues! 💛

Hi everyone, I’ve just received a bit of disappointing news that some of the QR eggs have been ripped down.

We’ve been blown away by the response, with lots of eggs being scanned and plenty of families out and about enjoying the hunt — which is exactly what we were hoping for!

If you happen to know anyone who might be taking a little too much “hunting” seriously, could you please ask them to leave the eggs in place so everyone can keep enjoying the fun.

Thanks for helping keep this a great community Easter activity!

Did you know three little words can anchor you anywhere on Earth. But what 3 words are they, you ask?

Well, there’s a free app that has quietly carved the planet into tiny 3m x 3m squares — each one whispered into existence by a unique trio of words. No street signs. No landmarks. Just coordinates disguised as normal language.

🚒 In an emergency, the use of your locations three words can speak louder than directions. You can tell emergency services exactly where you are — even in the bush, on a back track, or out on the farm.

If you’re curious (and enjoy a small mystery), open the app and type these words exactly:

👉 each.chaos.bloke

You may discover something egg-stra interesting waiting there 🥚
It’s simple, smart, and could be vital when it matters most.
