Kia ora whānau 🌊

Due to the current harsh ocean conditions, we won’t be running any lessons this week. Safety always comes first.

We want to wish our whole community a Merry Christmas and thank you for all the support, smiles, and mahi this year. We’re looking forward to getting back in the water with you in the New Year when conditions allow.

Have a safe and happy holiday break, enjoy time with your whānau, and we’ll see you soon 🤍

🌊 LABOUR DAY LAUNCH – P**I PATHWAYS 🌊

Kia ora e te whānau, we’re kicking off our P**I Pathways season this Labour Day, Monday 27 October, down at Sunset Beach, Port Waikato. We’ll get started at 9.30am.

This is a free community kaupapa to get our kids and whānau out connecting with the moana in a fun and safe way.

Ages 5 to 16 welcome. Tamariki under 5 will need a parent or caregiver in the water.
We encourage mums, dads, uncles and aunties to join in too.

We provide all the gear, just bring a towel, some water and a good attitude.
This kaupapa is free thanks to Ngā Toa Aotearoa Charitable Trust.

We’re also starting our weekly P**I Pathways sessions again and bringing back our adult lessons, Grom Squad and advanced surf training.

If you or your tamariki are keen to come along, send us a message or comment below so we can plan numbers.

See you all down the beach 🌞

new dates whānau

Kia ora koutou

All surf sessions scheduled for Monday to Wednesday this week are postponed. The weather is too cold and we don’t want the kids catching a chill before the holidays.

We’ll keep an eye on the forecast and be back in touch with new dates as soon as conditions improve.

If your whānau can’t make the new dates because of other plans, we can provide a full refund or carry your booking forward to our next holiday programme—whichever works best for you.

I’m sorry for the muck-around and really appreciate your understanding. Please let me know what option suits your family.

Ngā mihi,
Kaylib
