Amesbury Adventure Club

Amesbury School is starting an adventure club for all the energetic adventurers among us. The activities of the club will be anything physical - triathlons, kayaking, hiking, orienteering etc. We are looking to kick-off with the upcoming Cross Country Circuit series.

The Amesbury Adventure Club came out of conversations between a small group of parents. The term "club" at this point in time is very loose.  We are not sure exactly what form the "club" will take. However, we are going to start with promoting some activities that students can be involved in and then see how it evolves over time.

If you are interested in representing the school in the cross country series, joining the adventure club or have any ideas for club activities, please contact Liza Hodson liza@eyespysecurity.co.nz.

Information below for the series. We can email you a registration form or you can download it from the website mentioned below.
