Looking for a fun holiday programme your tamariki will love?

We know the last thing any child wants to do is to waste their holidays doing something boring! That’s why our holiday programme at The Y (formerly known as YMCA) Ellerslie Recreation Centre is jam-packed with activities for kids. One day children could be tackling a rock climbing wall, and the next, they could be jumping into a jet boat.

Fun, engaging programmes

Our school holiday programme, for five to 12-year olds gives them the space to wind down after a busy term while keeping them interested and involved through different activities each day. From games and sport to creative self expression, they'll make new friends and stay busy - you'll be picking up happy kids at the end of each day!

Our next holiday programmes will run from Monday 30 September to Friday 11 October. Stay tuned for more information.
