Prime Minister John key's first appearance this morning was watching the Bay Twister Cheerleading Squad.

Mr Key was given plenty of thrills watching the members of the group going through their different routines.

A reporter on the scene said the performances ranged from girls being hurled into the air and caught to a mass demonstration by all 106 girls and boys in the club.

Bay Twisters Cheerleading Squad has only been going for 18 months and is the only non-for-profit cheerleader squad in the country.

Earlier: Prime Minister will be in Tauranga today and will attend the official opening of the Tauranga Eastern Link project.

The $455 million new highway is the biggest roading project in the Bay of Plenty's history and will open up travel and support economic development and growth in the region.

The project includes seven bridges, the country's biggest roundabout, a new cycleway and one of the largest public art pieces on display in New Zealand - a 130m long pa sculpture.

Mr Key is also set to open the new Hairy Maclary Sculpture Park at the Strand.
