Push Play

Kids Pushing Play at the Horowhenua Aquatic Centre
We promote the push play message, designed to get people physically active. The campaign is based on medical proof that everyone can benefit from even small amounts of physical activity. We run push play classes which are low impact and lite-paced. We also have green prescription classes which include a discussion on health topics such as diabetes, cardiac care or nutrition followed by an opportunity to do some physical activity.

Sport Horowhenua also run several events throughout the year these include events like, Bikewise Week, Trig Challenege, Go Active Kids TRYathlon and the BNZ Workplace Challenge.
