Local Youth
FOR ALL HIGH SCHOOLERS | YEAR 9-13
Local Youth meet every week on a Thursday evening from 5-7pm. This space, known as ‘Whakaahu’, is where youth connect over dinner, followed by some intentional discussion and small group time. If young people wish to arrive earlier than 5pm, there is a casual hangout space for them from 3.30pm.
Local Youth also partner with CYC Trust for Friday night events throughout the year.
We welcome our youth to the 5:30pm Sunday church service (during school terms). This is shaped to be a welcoming space for youth and young adults, everyone is welcome, see you there!
Check out our socials to get connected in.
