Active Kids park sessions

During the January, April and October school holiday periods, Hutt City Council runs a popular Active Kids programme at local parks across the city.

Active Kids park sessions are designed to introduce children (aged five to 12) to sport and movement skills in a fun, inclusive and supportive atmosphere.

It's free and fun for the whole family, so come along and get active.

Parent/caregivers are required to stay with their children throughout the programme and please ensure that your children wear shoes, sunscreen and a hat and bring a drink bottle.  Picnics are encouraged.

No bookings required....just come along and join the fun!
