Ask about our Engineering Programme for 8-13 year olds. We're taking the thought that coding needs to be learnt to the next level... Engineering:
“Engineers are people who design, construct, and maintain structures, materials, and systems while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety, and cost.” Wikipedia
Learn-Now's the award winning programme run by Registered NZ Teachers & Tutors. Learn-Now was first established in 2001, informed by experience with online teaching since 1997.
Learn-Now's been evolving its global elearning, financial literacy and compassion programme ever since. It helped establish what became the leading student-based portfolio for FreshAz Education (though formerly known as AEO Ltd - 'Authentic Encounters Online' earlier). Late 2016, we've invited to create a very specialised 'Like Minds' programme known as KidzConnectz - but watch this space for more on this, mid Term 1'ish 2017. View more

We invite home and school partnerships for both long and short-term involvement, to join the fun!
Parents & teachers, let's first chat about what you'd like to adopt and how that will look in terms of fees.
Last year, the 2018 KidzConference saw 232 students attended from 24 different schools in the Wairarapa and Wellington. Coupled with this, there were 62 community supporters in the way of staff, presenters and volunteers! This year, 2019, we're sadly unable to have one. But next year, 2020, we've got an even more exciting range of opportunities, including and will include some of this year's new opportunities also e.g. archery, horse riding, Maori Arts and some serious music making etc!

Students connect with people 'in the field'. This ranges from people in other countries guest experts, or students in other schools. At one point, we took an interest in Anthony (12) in Uganda (right), and funded a water tank in a nearby Ugandan village in need.
Global and Digital Citizenship is at the Social Inquiry heart of Learn-Now. So too, are concepts of Pay it forward, and working with and for each other (not for the teacher). Students experience scenarios to live and breathe, including participation in community projects. With all they learn so what, what if and what now are challenges. How can new skills or slices of knowledge impact others, or further develop themselves...?
