What an epic few days for our KC Surf Team!

Our KC surfing tamariki have been down in Raglan over the past few days, catching waves, building confidence, and making incredible memories along the way!

A huge shout out to Fleur Walter and Elaina Johnston for making this incredible experience possible for our kids, we are so lucky to have you!

Also a massive thank you to Yana Mitchell, our amazing KC Surf Captain, for helping bring it all together. Can’t forget about our incredible parent helpers who spent hours in the chilly water, making sure our tamariki could have the safest, most fun experience possible!

It takes a team to create opportunities like these, and we are so grateful to everyone who helped make this trip one to remember. So many smiles, epic waves, and memories made, as well as WAKA values shown among the students.
