Gymnasium
The bones of the Otorohanga College Gymnasium have been there since the 1960s. In 2013 we saw major renovations take place. Over the years the gym has witnessed many a beep test, circuit, press up, halfway buzzer beater, spike, overhead smash...the list goes on. The previously worn out floors have tasted the sweat of many of our past and present students but it is time for a much needed makeover. In the cleanup and amongst a few forged notes we found this little beauty. A rugby ball from 1988.The project cost approximately $600, 000 and was completed in 2014.
​
As well as hosting College Physical Education lessons, the gymnasium is also used for many community groups and clubs including; Tae Kwon Do, Fitness classes, Basketball and Soccer to name a few. This community link has continued since the gym opened and is important that we continue to support our local community. In the renovations we added a weights room, office space and a classroom. It is a fantastic facility.
