Pool Party – Summer Sports Day

Grab your friends and whānau, pack your togs, towel and sunscreen and splash into the final pool party of the season!

Get ready for the ultimate summer sports day pool party! We’ve got a GIANT lineup of inflatables – think obstacle courses, the inflatable Gladiator, Bull Rush bouncy castles, and an inflatable basketball hoop. Plus, sports fans can meet their favourite Rams and Tactix players, and sweet treat lovers can enjoy a free ice cream, courtesy of our friends at Streets.

We’ve even got our Manu Competition Grand Final happening – it’s a day packed with excitement!
