Updates

Snow White age range now 16 and under

Stratford District Youth Council have increased the age-range for tamariki and rangatahi who can come to "SDYC presents Snow White" for free. It was 12 and under and it's now 16 and under. See page 9 of the booklet for event details (we've updated the booklet). Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on the age-range!

Wreath Making workshop date change

Whoops, we initially shared the wrong date for our upcoming Anzac Day Wreath Making event. If you had an early version of the booklet, you may have seen 22 April as the date, but it should be Wednesday 23 April. The booklets in our facilities and on this page are now correct.

Find out what fun activities are available these April school holidays!
