That is not a range requiring certification under the NZ Police Firearms Safety Authority interpretation of the Act and Regulations. FSA would refer you to the recommendations made in Section 8 of the FSA Shooting Range Manual (LINK).

Sighting-in that is done by an individual or a small
group of individuals (but not a shooting club) on a
one-off or occasional basis (e.g. before a hunting trip
or duck-shooting season), does not have to be done
on a range if it can be carried out safely, whether
on private or public land with the permission of the
landowner or respective controlling authority.
