The Explorer Club

10 x 10 | Hei Hei

The Explorer Club – a brand new Greenstone series for HEIHEI that introduces iconic NZ explorers to kids through hands-on adventures of their own.

THE JOURNEY BEGINS

Rangatahi from across the motu are signing up for the adventure of a lifetime. They’ll leave behind urban safety nets to learn some new outdoor superpowers and follow in the footsteps of Raureka, Frank Worsley and Sir Edmund Hillary, among heaps of other adventurous tīpuna. This challenge is no walk in the park. From sea to sky to glaciers, we’re talking serious adventure!

Leading the gang as their chief, instigator, and all-around goof is presenter, Sonny Ngatai, as our rangatahi challenge themselves with exciting mountaineering and backcountry skills, experiencing Aotearoa’s alpine extremes, colourful wildlife, and maritime kōrero. They’ll bond and grow as a team and ultimately have a whole lot of fun in our great outdoors.
