Squiggle Holiday Programme

Kia ora! It's important to us that we continue to offer innovative and fun activities for your child/children to enjoy during our Squiggle Holiday Programme. We would like to hear from you on how we can improve what we currently offer. We'd appreciate it if you could fill in the survey below. Ngā mihi. Katrina and the Squiggle team

Question Title

* 1. When did your child/children last attend a Squiggle Holiday Programme?

Xmas Holidays 2018/2019

During 2018

2017 or earlier

My child/children have not yet attended a Squiggle Holiday Programme

Question Title

* 2. How many children are you responsible for between the ages of 5 - 13 yrs?

More than 4

I do not have any children that I am responsible for

Question Title

* 3. We would like to offer specialist programmes over 2 -3 days as a seperate programme with our Squiggle Holiday Programme. Could you indicate which specialist programmes your child/children would be interested in attending?

Squiggle Sci - a three day practical science programme where children can engage in fun, practical science experiments while learning about fundamental scientific principles

Squiggle Kai - a three day practical cooking programme where children can learn about basic cooking principles and bake yummy kai alongside dinner and lunch ideas. Ingredients will be provided (minimum age 9)

Squiggle Eng - a three day Young Engineers programme where children learn about engineering principles while building theme

Squiggle Spark - a three day practical programme that will spark young minds and focus on learning and applying skills in innovation, problem solving, and design thinking

Squiggle Camp - (summer holidays only) - a three day camp where children experience the great outdoors including learning bush skills, fishing, tramping and tenting.

My child/children would not be interested in attending specialist programme/s

Are there any other specialist programmes you would like to see?

Question Title

* 4. For the specialist programmes mentioned above, bearing in mind all resources and teaching spaces will be provided, and specialists will be required to design and deliver the programmes, how much would you be prepared to pay? Numbers will also be limited for these programmes and enrolments approved on a first come, first served basis. All specialist programmes will run for three days.

Question Title

* 5. Earlier start time. We understand how traffic and travel times have increased over the last few years. Work start times may also have changed. Because of this, we have had a number of parents who have wanted to drop their child/children off before 8am each morning. If we opened earlier with a BREAKFAST CLUB between 7:30 - 7:50 each morning offering a continental breakfast, would you consider bringing your child/children earlier? The cost per day would be $8.50. This would cover food, staffing and room hireage.

Yes

Other thoughts around opening times?

Question Title

* 6. We would like to take a close look at our Squiggle Holiday programme sessions to ensure we meet yours and your childrens' needs. We will maintain our Young Engineers programme. Could you indicate which other fun sessions would interest you or your child/children?
