AIMS GAMES - a super successful regatta all round! TYPBC turned on 9 races in tricky, changeable conditions for a fired‑up fleet of more than 70 intermediate school sailors. Big thanks to the team at TYPBC 👍

Representing Belmont Intermediate and Takapuna Normal Intermediate, our three Wakatere sailors have cause to feel proud: Karlia Dunne showing some of her best sailing yet in Tauranga’s tides, Miller Jackson impressing at his first multi‑day regatta, and James Garnham charging through to claim the Year 7 Boys silver medal podium spot 👏👏👏

Well done Wakatere!
