After School Arts Academy: Term 2

Take two!!

Children thrive when given opportunities to be creative, connect with others, and enjoy themselves in a new environment.

Our after-school program offers a safe and welcoming space for your child. The classes are educational and focus on fostering the creative process, encouraging individual creativity, experimentation and personal artistic expression. Our Art Academy offers this over a 9 week programme.


Toi Māori – After Kura Programme: Term 2

Nau mai Haere mai!

Our Toi Māori After Kura Arts Academy invites tamariki to immerse themselves in the rich cultural traditions of māori art through hands-on experiences. Throughout the program, children will explore various art forms such as UkuKowhaiwhaiWhakairoRaranga, and creating Pou. They will also learn about the importance of Māori atua, including Hine-te-iwaiwa and Hine-ahu-one. This program is designed to encourage creativity and cultural understanding, giving tamariki the tools to express their identity and make sense of their world through art.
