A 12-year-old boy’s persistence has paid off with the new modular pump track in Shirley Community Reserve.
The pump track installation follows a petition – led by Chisnallwood Intermediate pupil Shannon Smith – to the Waipapa/Papanui-Innes Community Board, calling for the creation of a skate, scooter and bike area. His determination resulted in the opening of the pump track in May 2020.
