Featured Event

The Big Braai

Cook’s Gardens Wanganui has been chosen as the venue for new, colourful and vibrant threads to be added to the tapestry of the already rich New Zealand and South African cultural connection.

There will be an exciting, charged atmosphere as folks from all over New Zealand gather to make an attempt at a Guinness World Record to have the most people simultaneously preparing meat over open coals.

See full details at www.bigbraai.co.nz

Athletic Sports

The summer period features a wide array of athletic events, including primary, intermediate and secondary schools championships, inter schools events and a Central Region meeting.

Very few centres in New Zealand can offer such a venue for schools events at a price that all schools can afford. The facilities for all track and field events are of the highest standard and encourage children to give of their best and to continue their interest in the sport.

If you can, make sure you attend your children's or grandchildren's events to encourage them in their efforts, particularly through their school's meetings.
