This morning we were privileged to attend the blessing of Kapiti College’s newest waka, Rongomai, at Kapiti College marae.

A special moment for our rangatahi and a powerful example of what can happen when community comes together. Huge thanks to Whātonga Waka Ama, Kapiti College and Waka Kapiti for the collaboration and shared vision behind this kaupapa.

On behalf of the club, we also want to acknowledge and sincerely thank Matua Paora, Whaea Alison, Matua Alby, Matua David,Matua Eddie and Kui Lois for bringing this to life for the rangatahi of Kapiti. Your leadership and guidance made this morning what it was.

Rongomai is more than a waka. It represents opportunity, connection and pride for the next generation. We cannot wait to see it out on the water. 🌊

It was a beautiful morning for a paddle and some coaching.

Learning important safety aspects to ensure everyone who paddles with our club, is safe off and on the water, was the call of the day.

Quote of the day: ‘safety is everyone’s responsibility’

If you’d like to join our coaching session and help build a culture of fun and safety in our club, let us know.
