Adventure Racing
The programme started in December last year with a
junior team representing Hawkes Bay at the Get2Go
competition at the Outdoor Pursuits Centre on Great
Barrier Island. The team was very well lead by Dylan
Kirk.
The team raced over five days of challenges. They
improved a position each day through the
competition to finish seventh! They did very well to
win two challenges outright.

During 2014 students have competed in the Triple
Peaks Challenge, The Hilary Challenge and the
regional Get2Go competition. HNHS hadn’t
competed in Hilary Challenge for some years and
so we competed to gain knowledge of the event and
to gain skills to do well in the future. We had three
teams enter Get2Go and I was pleased to see two
teams make the top five.
I enjoyed working with all the students involved in
the events and thank them and their parents for their
commitment to the sport.
