Mountain Biking
With the development of the Whangamata Ridges mountain bike park on our doorstep, we have an amazing opportunity to deepen the connection to our local environment.
The Senior Ride Programme (Yr 7-13) rides every Monday. Riding the trails with a bit of friendly adult support, this group has a real focus on fitness and skill development.
The Junior Ride Programme (Yr 2-8) rides every Thursday. Riding the trails with alot of friendly adult support, the students will pick up some new skills, meet like-minded kids, and have some fun along the way.
