Young Athletes registrations now open

Looking for a fun and supportive way for your child to get active?

Special Olympics New Zealand has opened registrations for its Young Athletes Weekend Programme in Wellington for Term 3.

Designed for tamariki 2 to 10 years with intellectual disabilities and/or takiwātanga (autism) the programme focuses on movement, confidence, developing skills and having fun in a welcoming environment.

Sessions will be held on Saturdays from 8 August to 12 September at Taita, Lower Hutt for morning sessions and Tawa, Porirua for afternoon sessions.

Whether your child is trying organised physical activity for the first time or simply enjoys being active, Young Athletes provides an opportunity to build skills, make friends and grow confidence at their own pace.
