Junior Dolphins Sessions
Petone, Lower Hutt, Wellington
Dolphins Sessions
Children aged 10 to 13 turn up each week for these lively Tuesday evening gatherings that mix friendship-building with practical skills. The sessions create a steady rhythm for young participants who enjoy the social side of regular attendance alongside structured activities.
Each meeting follows a boys-brigade format with a marine focus. Participants rotate through drill practice, teamwork challenges, and hands-on tasks that develop confidence and coordination. The open sessions suit families looking for a consistent weekly commitment in the Petone area.
- Drill exercises that improve focus and coordination
- Group games and problem-solving challenges
- Basic seamanship and navigation activities
- Water safety talks with practical elements
- Leadership roles within small teams
- Kayaking and swimming when conditions suit
The programme runs every Tuesday evening, giving families a reliable slot for skill development and social connection without needing prior experience.
