Here at The Kind Foundation we are invested in growing and inspiring the next generation.
Our Sport and Recreation programmes based at the Te Kapehu Riccarton School is designed for those who love to get out and stay active during the holidays. These action-packed programmes are designed for our 5-11 year olds and are a perfect stepping stone to our overnight camps. Over the course of the week the groups will build connections, trust, resilience and self confidence as they try new activities and practice enriching life skills.
Our Booking Options
As you know, we encourage children to attend a full week of our programmes. This is provide children consistency and the opportunity for children, and staff alike to get to know each other, to build connections, trust and share experiences as a group. We understand and appreciate this model does not work for all families for a variety of reasons. We are committed to continue to provide a high-quality experience for your children, including our engaging activities, experienced staff, and a safe environment. To continue delivering the excellent standards you expect, it has become necessary to make a modest increase in our programme fees for those who request short week bookings. We ask that when booking short weeks a minimum of 3 days is booked. If you would like to request individual days please email holprog@thekindfoundation.org.nz
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. Please note the subsidy will to process into your account three weeks after the school holidays have finished. Please send subsidy forms to holprog@thekindfoundation.org.nz to be completed.
