Thursday 23 January saw Taumutu whānau take to the hills to walk off their Christmas chocolates. They also tackled the Kennedys Bush Scenic Reserve walk. It was a hard slog up the hill but the beautiful day and fabulous views coupled with interesting kōrero and the promise of delicious kai waiting at the top made the effort totally worthwhile. Our hīkoi always foster fantastic whanaungatanga and everyone is now looking forward to our next planned event, cycling the Little River Rail Trail.
