🏆Winner🏆Wellington Airport Regional Community Award, Sport & Leisure, Upper Hutt Region!

We've been keeping something pretty special under our hats… we're the Upper Hutt Regional Winners for Sport & Leisure!

These awards celebrate the volunteers who make our club what it is, so really, this one belongs to every single one of you after a huge year.

From our committee to our coaches, skaters, parents and caregivers, we love the breadth of mahi that goes into keeping this club going. A special shout-out to all the volunteers behind the scenes, quietly doing the day-to-day mahi that keeps the club running, the small stuff that often goes unseen but makes everything possible 🙌

It's been a massive year: the move, the working bees, transitioning our competitive skaters and learn-to-skate whānau to new venues. Our old facility on Railway Avenue served our club for around 20 years, but what truly makes our club special is not the building. It is the people, the teamwork, the compassion, the sportsmanship, and the lifelong connections.

He tāngata – it is the people. It's thanks to everyone single one of you that we're glad to see out another year in Te Awakairangi, and see so many people enjoy putting on some skates.

‼️IMPORTANT‼️ This upcoming Saturday we will not be having our usual Kiwiskate class due to coach illness and coaches supporting our skaters up in Palmerston North for a competition.

We look forward to seeing you back on skates either the following Tuesday or Saturday 🩵🛼 Thank you for your understanding.

Big thank you Corey for taking time out of your evening to come see what we’re about, and also helping spread the word about our learn to skate classes 🩵🛼 Ngā mihi!
