Children's entertainment space in Auckland

“A magnitic for visitors from near and far. This is the most famous and popular beach in Auckland. Always packed. You can try the eateries along Tamaki Drive. There is two toilets. There is also a playground. There is a police station at the intersection. Always lock your car and don't show any valuables.”

“As a first time Mummy, you want to make sure your child is safe, cared for and loved. That's what Nurture + Bloom provided for us! My son started at 5months, they have transition visits which helped me and my son immensely. The Aunties (teachers) are amazing, genuine, loving, kind and caring. They really made our transition a smooth one. My son is now 15months and thriving! Thank you Aunties for the amazing work you do and for always going above and beyond for not just my boy but for me too! You can really feel God's grace and peace in this Centre. I highly recommend.”

“We had our end of season Hockey at Laserforce, and had 2 hours unlimited lasertag. It was amazing, the kids and adults all loved it. It's such a big space with an upstairs and downstairs. Everything is explained well and the staff are great. We were able to bring in outside foods and had Pizza Hut delivered from just around the road and brought in other drinks and foods. All and all I recommend this for a kids party or team building activity.”

“Great facilities for performances and classes. Staff are helpful and friendly.”

“Nice covered and fenced playground for littles. Manageable on your own if you take more than one kid as there are different areas of interest. Toilet on site too. Will visit again”

“Good for short walks, lots of variety in trees including pines, oaks, bamboo and native trees. Home to australian magpies, native fantails, blackbirds, swifts, and song thrush. Several full sized sport fields on site for use. Toilets near near entrances. Two sets of playgrounds and one set of exercising stations.”

“What an amazing playground, with the best view! We are over from Australia and came past here, we absolutely love this playground- it had so much to offer for our toddler. Swings, slides, climbing frames, tactile boards, … definitely recommend coming here if you’re nearby!”

“Centennial Park Bush Walk is in Campbells Bay of Auckland's North Shore, right next to the famous Pupuke golf club. There are a couple of tracks in this bush which are all loops - Walking Bus, Aberdeen, Mamaku, Kohekohe, Bayliss, Avenue, Tui, and Magnolia. Combined, they are 4km track length altogether, and it may take an hour or so to complete them all. It would be handy to have a park map with you so that you will not be on the same track over and over in circles! Good shoes for this walk are essential, as some sections, particularly the Avenue of Remembrance, can be muddy and slippery after wet days. Depending on which direction you walk, there are uphills and downhills so be prepared. Dogs are allowed but must always be on a leash. There's a great lookout point with seating and views out to Campbells Bay and the Hauraki Gulf. Also, there are a couple of picnic benches in this park for you to have a relaxed meal or a drink.”

“Such a fun time at the park today with my grandson. Just moved into the area and so happy to find such a jem so close to home.”

“Came here this afternoon for a short walk and a picnic. Very calming site, nice community and surroundings.”

“I regularly start and finish my walk of the Omana Perimeter Loop Track from here. There are splendid water views especially from the higher parts of the track. And the walk along the farmland border and through the bush and wetlands is very pleasant.”

“Loved this place with our three year old handsome junior. He loved it. There is single line railing track to hang and ride. That too is free. Quiet and comfy place. Thanks NZ.”

“Beautiful views of the harbor bridge and the city sky tower. Great picnic spot. Love the forest walks.”

“Came to this beach on labour monday. Its very beautiful and not packed with people.”

“We had a great time on all the games. I especially enjoyed the No Mans Land VR free-roam no cables team battle shooter!”

“Having enjoyed the magnificent views at sunrise today, 16/2/2024, we are so blessed to start our beautiful day off every Friday. At around 6:50am, the Sun rose gradually above the sea level. We stood on the grass which was a bit wet and watched the sunrise peacefully and gracefully. There were not many people there at that time, apart from a few joggers who do their daily jog along the trail. We enjoyed our packed breakfast and homemade coffee in our car with the amazing sunrise picturesque view. We highly recommend you to watch sunrise there if you live near Bucklands Beach or Half Moon Bay in East Auckland.”

“Amazing service ! Had so much fun and very accommodating. We have 6 children ages 4-13 and she made sure to accommodate to them all. So much fun for them as well as us parents. Definitely recommend. Also the lasertag space is the perfect size, not too small yet not too big.”

“Plenty of activities on during the month. Keep up the good work.”

“It’s a small community Hall. The hall is perfect for kids parties, adult parties, weddings, fitness classes, church groups, social groups, sports groups, corporate functions, staff training, business planning, rehearsals, small community groups and lots more. Maximum of 50 people. Very affordable and easy. Theres a kitchen and table and chairs. The hall is a great space for the community to use.”

“Absolutely amazing hall. Clean, modern and fairly priced. Booking and everything was so easy and smooth. Great quick responses when we messaged. The hall came with everything you would need for your event. My son’s first birthday here was everything we wanted it to be! Extremely grateful and will be booking here again whenever we have an event.”

“Highly recommended!! Hired this hall for a first birthday in the weekend and it was such a beautiful venue. Easy to hire, communication was quick and very efficient. Very easy to find if you are using the google maps. We hired the main hall and small meeting room next to the kitchen and the kitchen we also added the Full stage and AV package. We were given a video with instructions on how to use the Full AV and it was very informative and very easy to follow. For someone who don’t know anything about AVs, we had no problem at all and everything worked out well. Very happy!! Photos below…”

“Beautiful theatre, reception was friendly. The waiting room is bit small and became overcrowded before the show and with interval. But I will be back there, was an enjoyable evening.”

“Lovely playground right next to the Point Chev beach. There is the usual playground, lots of slices, a mini push train and a flying fox too which the adults can enjoy too. Quite safe and a huge grassy area as well for other games”

“Definitely recommend. Was a great venue to host my son’s 5th birthday party. Perfect space for the kids to play on the playground and there was a room for us to have a bouncy castle as well. Was easy and simple to book and had no issues at all :)”

“Gribblehirst Park Playground is a fun and family-friendly spot for kids of all ages. It features swings, slides, climbing structures, and a flying fox, offering plenty of opportunities for active play. The playground is set within a spacious park with open green areas, making it a great place for picnics and outdoor fun. With its safe, well-maintained equipment and shaded spots for parents to relax, it’s a fantastic place for a family outing.”

“A really nice, multi-use gymnasium - two large arenas with a viewing platform between. Houses gymnastics and trampoline National and international competitions and training.”

“This is a 2.8km off leash dog walk. There is one good sized pond for dogs to swim and depending on whether it has been raining will depend on whether sister will be flowing. There are a few yucky parts where if the dogs get covered in mud, they will need a bath!! They love it though. The track also caters for a few cyclists some of whom go too fast. Don't be shy to say, 'slow down', I do. Great place.”

“Love this place. The staff was so nice.”

“my moko is new to this place, staff are always welcoming a cross section of mum's dad's & grand careers as well... the children have fun, there's so much variety of activities to do here.... very popular place...”

“good to walk with kids and there is a playground that people call it Red playground. Also you can find ducks at the near the pond”
