There’s still two more days until the Easter bunny officially plants his chocolate treats, but the hunt is already underway at Werribee Park.

6000 colourful chocolate gems will be scattered across the lawned hunting grounds throughout the day.

More the eight thousand children are set to sweep them up, with a giant slide and pony rides for when the chocolates been collected. 

But it’s serious business, targets have been set for just how many need to be collected before time runs out.

It’s all part of the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal,
