Kia ora whānau,
Term 4 Weekly Youth Clubs start again in Week 1 on the school term! The term plans for all our clubs have been uploaded to our website and registrations are already LIVE. Spaces are available at all clubs, so why not try something different?! If your child or friend is keen to try a new club, but unsure if they’re going to like it, they’re welcome to just give it a try at no cost, if there are still spaces. Also if money is an issue, please let us know as we can probably help: accounts@yat.org.nz
