Our Work

The Rangatahi Raukura Basketball Programme is a dynamic initiative designed for rangatahi who are not in traditional school settings, offering them a safe, supportive space to connect, build skills, and foster a sense of belonging. This programme provides a unique opportunity for these young people to engage in regular physical activity while developing important life skills such as teamwork, discipline, and leadership.

Beyond basketball skills, the programme prioritises mental well-being, identity, and community connection, helping rangatahi develop confidence and resilience. It is open to rangatahi enrolled in educational services like Freyberg High School, Horizons Alternative Education, and Achievement NZ. With support from community members, this programme ensures that rangatahi have a space where they are valued, connected, and empowered.

The Raising Self Esteem for Women and Girls workshop is designed to provide early intervention and support for women and girls experiencing low self-esteem. This initiative will guide participants through activities and reflections that promote a stronger sense of self-worth, identity, and resilience. Through a combination of facilitated learning, creative expression, peer support, and family engagement, this group aims to foster confidence, connection, and community belonging.
