Homework Club

About Homework Club?

Homework Club's mission is to open doors to brighter futures for our kiwi kids. Through creating meaningful opportunities for community engagement we can support the social, emotional and academic growth of Tamariki. 

The concept is simple, but powerful. We connect partner firms, businesses, and organisations with low decile primary schools. The school provides classrooms or library space, and volunteers dedicate time to work alongside students after hours. What that hour may look like depends on each school community and what they believe will be the best way to support the learning of their students. Whether this be helping with homework, reading practice, building verbal confidence or even learning through educational games. 

For students, Homework Clubs means encouragement, extra support, and the chance to interact with adults who believe in their potential. It broadens their horizons and sparks curiosity about future pathways. 

Volunteers often discover as much as they teach, gaining fresh perspectives, cultural insights, and a renewed appreciation for the resilience and determination of our kids. As one child whispered after finally reading a full page aloud: “I didn’t think I could do it.” Moments like this remind us that confidence can be just as important as curriculum.

Together, Homework Club strengthens schools, inspires kiwi Tamariki, and fosters supportive connections in our communities.

Thanks to the generous support from our sponsors, we have been able to establish Homework Clubs and help hundreds of children throughout New Zealand. This support also allows us to focus on identifying more schools and partnering them with firms, businesses and organisations in their own community to set up additional Homework Clubs.
