During the school holidays YMCA provides a fun filled learning experience with a wide variety of daily activities and trips. The YMCA values of caring, respect, honesty and responsibility are reinforced during each activity.

As a member of OSCN (Out of School Care Network) all YMCAs follow OSCAR (Out of School Care and Recreation) policies and procedures to deliver holiday programmes and after school care. YMCAs are approved by CYFS for WINZ funding to be made available to parents. Please contact WINZ for more information on these subsidies 0800 559 009.

Most programmes operate in the school holidays from 9am till 3pm (excluding camps) and cater for 5-15 year olds. Before and after care is available for a small extra charge.

All programmes are fully supervised by YMCA staff who are committed to the safety and well being of all the children who come under their care. These programmes are very popular and each holiday we offer a different and interesting variety of activities ranging from games, arts and crafts to kiwisports and trips.
