​School Coordinators


We currently provide Training Days, Practices Journeys and Qualifying Journeys to a number of schools in the Auckland region. We are able to tailor our services to match the needs of your groups and offer a competitive rate.

We do our best to pick up as much as possible of the administrative, communication and planning work directly with your students. After you have let your students know about dates for an event all of the planning comes directly to us. If students are unable to attend an event that we have planned specifically for your school, they are able to attend our public events to stay up-to-date with the rest of the students.
