Beach Leader Training!
7th Jan 2026
What a perfect day for our beach leaders to get some snorkelling practice in! A huge thanks from Sean from Dave's Diving and Desiree who came down to give us some tips - it was so cool to have such experienced input. Our beach leaders are confident and ready to lead. We are looking for participants - local Kaikōura kids, aged 8 -13 who are wanting to get into the water snorkelling, boogie boarding or just hanging at the beach. Check out this form for more info or ring sarah on 0278072874.

Outdoor Leadership Camp
12th Dec 2025
What a great group of young men on our bushcraft leadership camp! We learnt lots about our native flora and fauna, went walking in the bush and kept an eye on the deer! Watch out for our January opportunities, these guys are going to be helping lead some bushwalks open to 8-12 year olds, sharing some of what they have learnt! Thanks to Sports Tasman, Puhi Peaks (Tim and Peter!) and Clarence River Rafting for lending all the gear!

Woohoo, we had an awesome Rafting Outdoor Leaders day on the Waiau Toa today. Thanks to a fabulous group of rangatahi leaders, the cool Clarence River Rafting team, and Sports Tasman for making it possible. These young leaders are now going to be organising some raft trips for other Kaikōura young people, and using their leadership skills to encourage others into our great outdoors.
