New Wellness activities on offer: Badminton and massage!

Hung Ngo – badminton superstar!

Badminton

Everyone’s favourite Principle Scheduler, Hung Ngo, has worked with the Sustainability team to set up a regular badminton session, for all ages and abilities.

Every Thursday, starting Thursday 30 July, 12.30 – 1.30, in B174 (Sports Centre)

Bring your own racquet or hire one for $2. Hung will provide the shuttlecock.

Hung has played badminton since the age of 16 and currently plays for the Auckland Masters team, so can support those who need some pointers.

Give it a go! Whether new to the sport or a seasoned professional, it’s a great way to get moving and have some fun.

 

Massage is back, with a new provider

Massage sessions will be commencing again in August.

As our previous provider was unable to return, we have a new provider “The Mobile massage Company”.

As before the massage sessions will be alternating between the Waitākere and Mt Albert campuses. Waitakere will kick off on Monday 3 August and Mt Albert will follow on the Monday 10 August.

Tracey, our therapist is available from 10.00am – 2.00pm and you may book yourselves in via the booking sheet on the event listing.

Waitakere: Monday 3 August
Mt Albert: Monday 10 August

Our Sustainability team is subsidising these sessions so that Unitec staff members need only pay $20 per session, payable when you book. If there are not enough bookings on a given day you will be contacted a few days beforehand and asked if you want your money back or be booked in for the next session on campus.

Make sure you take advantage of this service and enjoy the thought of coming to work on a Monday with a small treat booked in.

Don’t forget to keep checking out the Nest events calendar to see all the activities on offer, including Hula dancing, mediation, pilates, yoga, futsal, gardening and waiata sessions.
