After the successful and fun afterwork series—and before you check out for the holidays—we are putting on a training session focussing on compass skills. The training will occur on Kaukau, at 6—7pm Wednesday, 17 December. Our session is aimed at those wanting to learn new skills and techniques, or those with more experience who want to practise their techniques, and is suitable for every ability (kids and adults welcome!). Bring your compass and clothes suitable for the weather, as it can be exposed on the tops. No dogs are allowed on the farmland. The session will be coached by Rachel and Yvette Baker, so please email Rachel at rachel.rosara.baker@gmail.com if you have any questions, or need to borrow a compass. On-street parking is available at our meeting point at the end of McLintock Street, accessed from Truscott Avenue. See the map. Key takeouts from the AGM If you missed the AGM, don’t worry. Here are some of the key takeouts. “This year has been one of growth, development, and community spirit as we continue to promote and enhance the sport of orienteering across the Wellington region.”—Beverley Holder, President You can read more about our club achievements—events, training, mapping and more—in Beverley’s report below. There will be no change to subscription fees for 2026. President’s report Committee and working groups As elected committee for 2026 is: Beverley Holder (President) Gerald Crawford (Treasurer) Lachlan McKenzie Jake Hanson Paul Teasdale-Spittle The committee will be supported by working groups to fulfil the club’s many functions. Working groups have been proposed but not confirmed, and are not necessarily permanent—they may be based around time-bound projects. We’d love to hear from you about which groups you think might be useful, and how you may like to contribute. Read the discussion paper and send your thoughts to Lachlan at secretary@wellingtonorienteering.org.nz Discussion paper Awards Congratulations to our award recipients this year. The Endeavour Cup is awarded for development and performance, and the Fortune Cup is awarded for outstanding service to the club. Endeavour Cup Rachel Baker received this year’s Endeavour Cup for her outstanding performances including as part of the New Zealand team at this year’s Junior World Orienteering Championships in Italy. Other nominees were Morag McLellan and Jake McLellan. Fortune Cup Alan Horn received the Fortune Cup. Alan unfailingly provides outstanding support for events, gear, and controlling and planning. Other nominees were Paul Teesdale-Spittle, Helen Hughes, Lachlan McKenzie and Will Vale. Members’ League We will be trialling a members’ league in 2026—a way to introduce some fun competition into events where scores are based on comparative performance, rather than absolute as per race time. Details are being worked through but generally will look like this: For members age 16 or over who run a Red-level course CSWs and OYs will be ‘counting events’ Scores will be allocated based on the formula “Average km rate * (age and gender weighting)” Overall winner: If there are 10 ‘counting events’, we will take your top 6 scores. Coming events Orienteering Wellington’s coming events can be found on our Events page. You can also toggle the calendar to show Orienteering Hutt Valley’s events. Sprint, Whitireia Campus – Wednesday 11 February Sprint, Victoria University – Wednesday 25 February Sprint, Masey University – Wednesday 11 March CSW, Tikara, Churton Park – Sunday 23 March For all events, visit Orienteering New Zealand.
