City of Melton residents can enjoy some early Easter festivities next weekend at a fun fete in Fraser Rise.
Dahua Australia will host the celebrations at the Westwood estate on Saturday April 9.
The main event of the day will be the presentation of five $2000 cheques as donations to local community groups within the City of Melton.
The festivities will also include live entertainment, activities for kids including an Easter egg hunt, face painting, a petting zoo and a variety of food trucks and eatery outlets.
The SES, CFA, Lions Club, Little Athletics and the Koala Club will also attend the fete.
In addition, the day will mark the opening of Westwood Park, a new parkland for Fraser Rise locals to enjoy.
Dahua Australia senior development manager Piotr Rutkowski said the company wanted to support the City of Melton’s population growth and give back to the local community.
“We’re grateful for the support of local leaders and community members, which is why we take great pleasure in giving back to our community by donating to charitable organizations that rely on volunteers,” Mr Rutkowski said.
