Many Dunedin parents were likely to have spent some time picking straw and chocolate out of their children's clothes on Saturday night after an event at Marlow Park.

The inaugural Great Easter Egg Hunt, organised by the South Life Church, attracted hundreds of Dunedin families to the park in St Kilda where children searched for eggs and other prizes in straw, joined sack races, jumped on bouncy castles or joined other games.

The church's children's pastor, Sarah Thompson, said the church wanted to organise something for the community and families to do on Easter weekend.

"It's been a heaps of fun. There was a good crowd and great atmosphere. I'd say it's been a great success."

The church was definitely keen to hold the event again next year, she said.
