We're getting into the cooler months now, but that's no excuse for hibernation. The team at Wai o Rua - Stratford Aquatic Centre have launched their brand new Group Fitness programme! There's a class for everyone, with on-land and in-water options, as well as lunchtime express sessions.

The team have also introduced Quiet Hour; an hour each week that's easy on the eyes and ears to support members of the community with sensory needs. No registration needed. Don't worry, they haven’t left out the littlies. There are Wai Play sessions for young tamariki and their caregivers.

To register, or find out more about the classes on offer, visit WaiORua.govt.nz or call 06 765 5403. We've got membership and concession passes available too, see our friendly reception team for details.
