As the annual Central Coast Kids Day Out (CCKDO) approaches, a fundraiser will be held at Tuggerah on Saturday, April 1.

It will be a pre-screening of the Argonuts movie at Event Cinema at 10am.

The day will begin with a mini expo and activities from 9am and will officially launch Central Coast Kids Day Out 2023 as it helps raise much-needed funds for the May event.

Children will be captivated by the adventures of young mouse Pattie and her cat-mate Sam as they help Jason and the Argonuts save the city.

This will be a sensory screening with lights and sound dimmed to create a comfortable environment where kids can move around, with the movie aimed at 2-10 year olds.

There will be a red carpet, a photo wall and giveaways and activities to engage children before the show.

A variety of stalls will feature at the mini expo and a mega raffle will be drawn on the day.

Also there to share the fun will be the CCKDO bear mascot Kody.

Funds raised from ticket sales will help fund CCKDO on May 7 so prices can be kept low and affordable for families.

Tickets can be booked via https://www.cckdo.org/

Central Coast Kids Day Out will be held from 10am to 3pm on Sunday, May 7, at Narara Valley High School.

Now in its 24th year, the event delivers an affordable family day out while bringing agencies and services together with tips on raising happy children.

The day also highlights services available to help families in the community, with a wide variety of children’s activities and entertainment on offer.
