The Kind Foundation Holiday Programme 

at Papa Hou 

Our Urban Adventure programme is based in the heart of Christchurch city from our brand new building, Papa Hou and is designed for those who love to explore urban and outdoor activities. This programme is designed for 5-11 year olds and is a perfect stepping stone to our overnight camps.Over the course of the week the groups will build connections and self-confidence as they try new activities and explore what Christchurch has to offer in a safe, fun and engaging environment.

Full week programme 

Our programme is designed to be a full week programme. This is to allow us to have limited children over the course of the week and not different children each day. This also allows our staff and the children to have consistency enables them to build connections, trust and confidence over the duration of the week. Please note activities are subject to change so we cannot guarantee activities will happen on specific days as the cost of our programme is divided across the 5-days.  
If you would like to request a short week please contact holprog@thekindfoundation.org.nz before booking. 

Please read If you are applying for financial subsidies.  

For fairness and consistency, full payment will be due at the time of booking via the online system. This full payment will confirm your booking, as many of our programs will have waitlists. It is then the parent/caregiver's responsibility to complete the necessary paperwork and apply for financial support. The Kind Foundation then receives the subsidy and the amount will be refunded to the nominated bank account.
