Sign up for a Trades Programme in 2023!
Whenua Iti Trades Programmes offer much more than NCEA credits - they are packed with experiential learning opportunities to build confidence, leadership & essential employability skills to set students up for future study, work and life. Best of all, they are FREE* for students to attend!
"Courses are highly relevant and well planned, with activities designed with students’ safety in mind. The professional staff and ongoing nature of reflective practices help ensure the courses meet stakeholder needs."
- NZQA External Evaluation Report, 2019
"With the leadership skills and self-confidence I picked up, I went on to be the head boy of my school the next year. That's the thing I love about Whenua Iti, you go there to learn about something but you always leave with so much more"
