“This event has come about as an idea from one of our young people” said Jim Gow, Project Manager at Word and Mouth. “It’s a bit of a come and try day, as well as a great excuse to catch these critters, have a swing and a slide, and get out and about!”

“We continue to engage young people by putting on a range of events for young people to do in Greater Shepparton. We hear too often that there is nothing to do in the area for young people and we are constantly looking to change that, especially when it comes to putting on new and dynamic events that we haven’t tried before.”

Children under the age of 5 must be accompanied by an adult at all times. 

Every Word and Mouth event is fully supervised, and is a drug, alcohol and smoke free event.

Word and Mouth is provided by the Greater Shepparton City Council.
