- Taking the stage at SUPA youth singing, dancing and theatre workshops at the Ōtara Music and Arts Centre.
- Getting crafty with the whanau at Fresh Gallery Ōtara’s arts and crafts sessions.
- Exercising your pooch on the dog agility equipment at the Ōtara Creek Reserve
- Working on your fitness at the Ōtara Pool and Leisure Centre. There are activities for the whole whānau, including fitness classes and indoor and outdoor pools!
- Having a splash at the Papatoetoe Centennial Pool. There’s also an indoor splash pool perfect for toddlers.
