60 young people, youth volunteers and Challenge staff and whanau were involved in the Johnsonville Christmas Parade.

Designing, building, painting, decorating and working out plans together drew the whanau together.

The actual day of the Parade – the sun shone, the whanau sang, the children waved and smiled, the crowds waved, the flag bearers marched, the rangitahi distributed lollies, bubbles were blown and all the hard mahi was celebrated.

A great occasion and lots of fun!!!!!
