Kia ora whānau, he mihi mahana ki a koutou. Aquafabulous has started for the year with a big splash, lots of laughter and bucket-loads of fun. I have been working with staff at the Hokitika pool and we have put together a totally new and exciting class. We have added a te reo component and music that you will know and love. Wai Korikori Tinana is suitable for all levels of fitness and we encourage you to go at your own pace and kua mutu when you are ready. New faces and new whānau are absolutely welcome, nau mai, haere mai. The bigger the rōpū, the bigger the splash.

I would like to give a big shout-out to management and staff at Hokitika Pool and the wonderful Summer Lilley for helping me put together our Wai Korikori Tinana class for 2017, ka mau te wehi. I would also like to thank Poutini Waiora and Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Waewae for the ongoing awhi and tautoko for the Aquafabulous initiative which has been running since May 2016. Hei konā mai, Rauhine Coakley. Aquafabulous is held Tuesday mornings from 10-11am at Hokitika Pool, Weld Street. Please contact Rauhine Coakley, Whānau Ora Navigator on 021 721 917 or email [email protected] for more information.

Whānau having fun at Aquafabulous.
