Kids Athletics Series on Tuesdays 4pm-6pm until 26 March
Kids Athletics is a 6 week 'have-a-go' style athletics programme where primary and intermediate school aged kids have the opportunity to try a variety of athletics activities in a non-competitive environment.
Activities include running races, long jump, high jump, agility games and ball skills.
The programme starts on Tuesday 19th Feb and runs on consecutive Tuesdays until (and including) Tuesday 26 March.
As its an outdoor programme, it is weather dependent.
Attendance is free and casual so there is no need to book in advance or feel obligated to attend all sessions, though we do hope you will be able to.
Participants should arrive at the event venue at 4pm, which is the Vauxhall Sports Reserve, also known as the North Shore Rugby Club grounds - access is off Vauxhall Rd, where the bleachers are.
Registration is done on site, each session. Sessions finish at 6pm and there is food (sausage sizzle) and drink for sale on site.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
