Work should be fun – and at sKids, it is!

Since 1996, we’ve been New Zealand’s favourite kids’ hangout, welcoming over 3,800 tamariki each day at 170+ school sites. From day trips and cooking to arts, science, and sports – no two days are ever the same. Come join us and bring out your inner child!

Join us for 9+ hours of fun each week working between 2 programme sites (St Mary's Northcote & Windy Ridge)! Most of your time will be in our after-school sessions (between 2:30pm – 6:00pm), with the chance to help out in before-school sessions too (7:00am – 8:30am). There may also be opportunities for extra hours during school holiday programmes, depending on rosters.
