Ngā Tai Tūātea a Taraika Swimming Club

We are grateful to have honoured our connection to the harbour with our inaugural Te Whanganui-a-Tara board paddle crossing 🌊🌅

Our crew embraced the opportunity to complete a challenging 13km paddle from Petone Foreshore ➡️ Freyberg Beach, with incredible attitudes and efforts 💪🏼

Together, we’ll continue to accomplish these non-traditional endeavours that help us grow and set us apart from the rest 🙌🏼

Who’s this guy?? Oh, just the New Zealand Record Holder for Men’s 15y 50, 100 & 200 freestyle…

…but we’re playing it really cool 😏🤩

New Zealand Secondary Schools 2026 was one for the books ✍🏼🌟

Our athletes brought the energy this weekend up in Auckland, representing us and their High Schools with pride and excellence 👑

PBs, medals, relays, titles, national records… are we missing anything??
