After the Mitre 10 Mega Tough Kid competition was called off due to Covid-19, a Brunswick School student was determined to ensure his school still got to enjoy the fun.
When she found out the event had been cancelled, Year 8 student Zania Hawea emailed Brunswick principal Jane Corcoran asking if they could hold their own Tough Kids Competition at school.
"I thought this was a tremendous idea. At Brunswick we like to empower the students to come up with ideas and as teachers to act on them," Corcoran said.
With the idea given the green light, senior students began designing the course.
