Holiday Programmes

Fees
Our STEAM based Holiday Programmes run from 9am-3pm Monday to Friday (excluding Stat hols).

Cost $63 per child per day (unless otherwise stated). Late Pick up may result in additional charges @ $10 per 15min.

STEAM-ED's Educators take pride in planning and providing holiday programme activities which will engage and stimulate children aged 5-13yrs. Our aim is that students explore and question using S.T.E.A.M (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) related fields. When appropriate we may split the children into junior and senior age groups. Some more demanding days are restricted to ages 8-13yrs - this will be clearly stated on the holiday programme flyer. Bookings are limited to 35 children each day which allows us to really get to know your child and endeavour to cater to any learning challenges or health concerns.

Our Holiday Programmes are MSD accredited enabling eligible parents to access Work and Income OSCAR subsidies. More information can be found at: https://www.workandincome.govt.nz/products/a-zbenefits/oscar-subsidy.html
