Sports Academy - Seal Fitness

On Tuesday 15 May the Sports Academy had a 1 hour session with Tony Burgess from Seal Fitness. Tony has an extensive background in sports fitness and has worked with the Bulldogs and is currently working as head fitness trainer for the Steamers and Fitness Coach for the Georgian Rugby Team!

An excellent strength based session that focused on our core (abdominals), with some upper (arms, chest and shoulders) and lower body (legs). What was different about this session was that we really had to focus on our technique and this meant keeping strong through our core. Look forward to next week session!

Sports Academy Kaimai Summit Tramp


On Thursday 26 April the Smiths Sports Shoes Sports Academy tramped from the Kaimai Summit back to the Ngamuwahine Outdoor Education Centre. A challenging tramp which has seen classes in the past complete this over two days with an overnight at the Hurunui Hut. The students completed the tramp in under 5 and a half hours, an outstanding effort! A huge thank you to the parents who supported us and also to Mr Hart, Mr Smith (our tramp leader), and Mr Cunliffe. A great experience. Please check out the photos!
