Holiday Programmes
The YMCA offers children of all ages fun activities to keep them happy and active during every school holiday. The different holiday programmes available are day programmes, before and after care programmes, and camps. Our programmes are run by Supervisors and trained YMCA leaders who will ensure your child has a fun, safe and memorable time.

What to bring?
Daily: Packed morning tea & lunch , warm clothing, hat, suitable footwear, water bottle & sunscreen (to be put on before attending on the days they are out in the sun).
Swim wear and towel are required daily during the summer, as we have access to a local school pool and may take the children for a swim on the lovely hot days.
When needed: dress up gear & resources, and if available, food to share on the party day, which is the last Friday in each holiday programme.
How do I pay?
Payment by cheque, eftpos, cash or automatic payment can be made to the Gisborne YMCA. Most parents/caregivers are entitled to a work & income subsidy, and we can assist you with completing your application.
