Hire a Play Kit

Bringing communities together through play.
Loan a Play Kit for your next community event!

What are Play Kits?

Our play kits are designed to make it easy for communities to connect, celebrate, and create joyful shared experiences.

Funded through local board support, these kits provide accessible, ready-to-use play equipment for neighbourhood events and community gatherings.

Play kits are collections of fun, engaging equipment that can be borrowed by community members and groups. They’re designed to remove barriers to play - making it simple for anyone to host an event that brings people together.

Why Play Kits Matter

Play is more than just fun - it’s a powerful tool for building stronger, more connected communities. These kits help to:

• Strengthen neighbourhood connections
  By creating shared experiences, play kits encourage people to meet, interact, and build lasting relationships.

• Increase participation in community events
  Having accessible, engaging activities helps attract more people - especially tamariki - to local gatherings.

• Improve access to play opportunities
  Not all communities have easy access to play resources. These kits ensure more people can enjoy safe, inclusive play where they live.
