If you’re looking for something to do with the family this weekend, check out Parklands at Play, Summer in the Styx 2020 and YES Power Sparks 2020. You may be interested to know that YES Power are a local electricity company who also have connections to YAT. They’re pretty confident they can beat most people’s current power providers on price and can provide a free quote. PLUS if you end up switching via UpstreamNZ, they’ll give YAT ongoing financial support too! Amazing! Get your free quote at this link…

If there are some in Years 7 & 8 also keen, Email: rego@yat.org.nz with the age of your child and then we can record if we have enough interest. Just $30 per term.

Our MSD approved after school programme now collects children in our vans from 5 different local schools:
1. South New Brighton Primary
2. Rawhiti Primary
3. New Brighton Catholic
4. Nova Montisorri
5. Chisnallwood Intermediate
A new decade begins and our Senior Oscar is expanding, due to requests, to also pick up students from Chisnallwood Intermediate. If you’re looking for after school care, with a variety of activities, in a nurturing environment and without the little ones, then check out our Senior’s Only OSCAR – just for Years 5 – 8!
At $18 a day (or $17 for two or more sibling), including a van pick up from one of the 5 local schools:
We are MSD approved so there’s a good chance you may qualify for funding to subsidise the cost of OSCAR too. Fill in a few forms at the beginning of the year, and after that it’s easy! Check out what you could receive at:
