KIDSZONE

Kidszone is an afterschool programme for primary school age level that involves a range of fun and creative activities that will help them relax after a busy day.

Local youth workers offer them an enriching, fun experience and to give them a sense of belonging and connectedness. Our quality programmes are carefully designed in conjunction with schools and the local community to provide the service that best suits your children. We love and value ideas and feedback from the local children that also helps the Kidszone team design their activities.

Kidszone meet once a week during the school term, with the support of local parents and volunteers who help prepare supper and snacks for the kids.

Celebrating Pacific Families

Every year at GHM we host a community fiafia evening celebrating our local Pacific Families and Culture! But what are actually fiafia nights? Fiafia means gathering or celebration, and local groups perform and showcase their amazing talent in traditional dancing, singing and even cooking. Fiafia evenings in Puketāpapa are carefully woven with the Poly Embrace initiative where our local youth navigators facilitate and deliver our own designed pacific model alongside our cultural advisory team.

Creative Minds

WHEN: February 21, 2022

21st - 25th February 2022 Adapting to change can be difficult, but when young creative minds come together there is a spark in the room! This space attracts ideas, colors and methods to problem solving and project planning that will support our communities. With the fear and stress of this global crisis, there are plenty of silver linings to be found and being creative, having the right mindset and knowing we are all in this together helped our creative team achieve many projects.

This creative team will research what is happening locally and around the world, contributing to challenges and barriers our youth and families face today. It then goes into a process of project planning using creative arts (songs, rap, short film, cooking videos etc) to deliver mini stories to inspire others.

Most of our athletes who come through are from different rugby clubs, social groups and locals who want to get fit. Why is exercise important? Some of the reasons are weight control, regular exercise increases your overall level of fitness, boosts your immune system, gains energy and has proven to help with your mental health. It can help with a myriad of health issues and it's as easy as taking a simple walk. Once this is established in your daily routine, you can start trying jogging, one step at a time!
