Tough Kids Christchurch

On Wednesday 30th November, 47 Tāwhirimātea children, 3 Tane Mahuta children, 7 parents and 2 teachers headed to South New Brighton Reserve for Tough Kids Christchurch.

Tough Kids Christchurch is a Obstacle race similar to Mud, Sweat and Tears but for children in Years 3-8. It is 2.5km long (shorter for Year 3 and 4s). There is a variety of challenges that test the children’s agility and endurance, including mud runs, mud crawls, water slides, tire climbs and inflated obstacles. In total 49 Rāwhiti Children, 2 Rāwhiti Teachers and 2 Rāwhiti parents faced the Tough Kids Course and all completed it. This was a fantastic event organised by Sport Canterbury and well organised with music, lolly scrambles, designated changing areas for children and even a coffee cart for parents. We had a great afternoon and are all proud that we completed the course.

 

We shared stories about the day in the newsletter which you can see on the school website and phone app.
