WELCOME TO KAS HARRISVILLE
Our Harrisville programme has been open since 2009.
โ
We operate our programme out of the school hall and have full use of the kitchen facilities for food preparation and baking/cooking activities. Harrisville school has excellent school playgrounds and a large field that we also have access to during our operating hours.
โ
Harrisville school has a heated swimming pool that we are permitted to use during Terms 1 and 4. Permission slips are required to be filled in and signed if you would like your child to participate.
โ
Harrisville After School Care offers activity drop offs to Tuakau township only, for more information please contact our office on 09 236 4078. Our Harrisville programme caters to schools in the Tuakau and Harrisville area, we currently pick up from Tuakau Primary, Tuakau College and Eden Christian Academy. โIf your school is not on the list of pick-up locations, please contact our office to see if we are able to pick up from your child’s school.

We run a Holiday programme at our Harrisville site.

I love outdoor activities like gardening and long walks. I enjoy spending time with the kids at KAS and watching them develop their own personalities and strengths.
