FOR TEACHERS

The YMCA can run holiday programmes at your school

Safe children are our priority

All of our teachers are fully qualified and must complete ongoing Safeguarding training. YMCA is New Zealand's first child-safe accredited organisation and we are proud to reflect this in all that we do.

YMCA is also Ministry of Social Development accredited so you can be sure your Tamariki are well cared for.
