Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This service of feeding the homeless and other needy would be available to everyone, irrespective of their religion, caste or ethnicity including children, youth & senior people of all the communities which will fulfil the core objective of our organisation serving the community as a whole.If you are homeless, getting the food you need can be a big challenge.Food is the glue that binds us all together. It opens doors.  It builds bonds and relationships, so that we can all be contributing members of society,” 
Free Food for All is a “a community project for the community, by the community,” . “It will also create channels, opportunities and empowers people.”

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      People in the community play a key part in shaping Manurewa.Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

WCT project of buying Food Truck is to serve free food to homeless , children in low decile schools and all other needy people in the community . Woman Care Trust is planning to deliver free food five days a week, commencing from Monday till Friday and will cover different locations of Auckland . One of the main areas to be covered in the list is Manurewa -which is a major suburb in South Auckland and is one of the most multicultural suburbs in Auckland. Making food available to the people in Manurewa region of all ages, gender, faith ,race and social status can make it better place to live in as the people plays vital role in the development of their region.WCT project of delivering free food to the community aims to improve the health and wellbeing of our population and to reduce health disparities by providing them food security.We aim to work with the motive to promote and protect good health, prevent disease, and improve quality of life across the population living in Otara-Papatoetoe region.
It's important to recognise that some residents are afraid or ashamed to access some of the services. Providing a free open street, no form filling and non manned pantries spread out around suburbs can mitigate some of those fears and ultimately get food into the hands of those who need it.

Project: Where I Live

Location:

Flatbush Primary School, Otara

Summary:

I will help a group of children to become authors! They will produce their own professionally published book about places they live. The book will be launched at their school by them with my mentoring. There will also be ePub, PDF and audiobook versions of the book so they can share it with a wider audience. The children will be the narrators of their own writing for the audiobook. We'll get the book done through a series of writing workshops I do with the children. There will also be guest workshops taken by a Pasifika journalist, Indira Stewart, and a Pasifika photographer, Raymond Sagapolutele.

Expertise:

I did this project with children at St Mary MacKillop School in Mangere in December 2019. You can see some footage here:
https://youtu.be/7J-mxSLf-TM
https://youtu.be/XZX7nTVJHgo
I've taught in Otara for over 23 years. I've also done writing and reading workshops with primary aged children throughout NZ and in the Cook Islands. I'm part of Read NZ's Writers in Schools program.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This project encourages young people to consider the positive aspects of their homes, the streets they live on, and the wider South Auckland area. This will be the basis of the writing. Research shows that when children feel a strong sense of belonging to the places they live, that this also helps with their mental and emotional well being. 
The children's families will be a central part of the process, including the blessing at the beginning, helping their children with tasks along the way, and attending and participating in the launch. 
For many Maori and Pasifika children literacy levels are either at or lower than national averages and this project will help to alleviate this by teaching specific writing skills, fostering a love of writing, providing an experience where they are successful at writing, and  encouraging them to believe in themselves as readers and writers as they grow older. They will see how possible it is to create books and take this knowledge and use it to create their own work in the future. There is a definite need for more written material by Maori and Pasifika writers for young people.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Community capacity building and empowerment

 

I will help a group of children to publish their own book about what home is to them.
 
The project targets children from Flatbush Primary School in Otara. I'll work with ten year 6 students selected by the school, and help them create a published book about their home. They'll be the authors of the work and take their own photographs as well. The children's families will be a central part of the process, including the blessing at the beginning, helping their children with tasks along the way, and attending and participating in the launch. The book will be launched in the school with the students organising the launch. I will mentor them in all these aspects. They will also receive mentoring and teaching from a professional Pasifika Journalist and a professional Pasifika photographer. The book will be published as a paperback, ePub, PDF and audiobook so families and extended family can access the book at home.
 
This project encourages young people to consider the positive aspects of their homes, the streets they live on, and the wider South Auckland area. This will be the basis of the writing. Research shows that when children feel a strong sense of belonging to the places they live, that this also helps with their mental and emotional well being. An example of this research is included in the Support Material section. In terms of writing skills, the project will promote imaginative thinking, build writing confidence and help grow self-esteem and pride. It uses an engaging concept to help students learn and practice strategies that will make them better writers, and more confident people. These outcomes will be evaluated by the school. For many Maori and Pasifika children literacy levels are either at or lower than national averages and this project will help to alleviate this by teaching children specific writing skills, fostering in them a love of writing, providing an experience where they are successful at writing, and hopefully encouraging them to believe in themselves as readers and writers as they grow older. They will also see how possible it is to create books and hopefully some of them will take this knowledge and use it to create their own work in the future. There is a definite need for more written material by Maori and Pasifika writers for young people.
 
Students selected will be either those with writing/journalism aspirations, or those identified by the school as needing encouragement with their writing. The school will decide. I will mentor them to create a professionally published book which they will share with their school community. There will also be two sessions where the students are mentored by Pasifika/Maori professionals. One session will be with a journalist. The other session will be with a photographer. In these sessions students will learn tips from the professionals, as well as having the opportunity to discuss their careers and be exposed to positive role models from their own backgrounds. There will also be ePub and Audiobook versions made that everyone in the school can have access to. The Audiobook will be the children reading their own writing kind of like this model: https://www.indigenousliteracyfoundation.org.au/i-saw-we-saw
 
The project will be developed in partnership with the school and young people in the following ways: the school will select the students for the project and seek their families' permission and support; students will write about topics of their own choosing within the overarching topic, with the assistance of their families; students will take the photos for the book with the assistance of their families; students will work together with me to choose a title for the book; students will organise the book launch. At the beginning of the project students will have a session with a kaumatua who will share important aspects of the Maori history of the area their school is located in and assist us with writing and understanding the pepeha for the opening of the book.
 
How the project supports the selected priority: the students will work alongside an author to write their own book, to learn about the process of writing and publishing a book, and to launch the book. They will be able to call themselves published authors.  This will inspire them to believe in their own voices, to know they can publish their own work and have more of their voices in print, especially Maori and Pasifika voices.
 
I aspire to do 5 projects like this a year which I know is a lofty goal but this is how much I believe in the value of this work. I have trialled it once already and witnessing the range of positive outcomes for students, school and families, as well as for my own development as an author and teacher, has been really exciting to see. One of the children in the 2019 project was so inspired that she joined another writing group - the Mana Mangere Writers Collective - which published a book not long after Where I LIve.

We work closely with Auckland Basketball Services Limited and Tangaroa College who have alot of experience in similar projects.

Players are encouraged to bring water bottles to training and games via the coaches and club notifications regularly. We have water fountains accessible for all during trainings. We have also been fundraising with Juicies recently instead of baked goods. Signage is on our noticeboard of the gym.
 
We have introduced a fitness session for our kids prior to training in addition to organising a variety of other fun activities to do as a club for team morale and keeping active like entering a team into the Weetbix Tryathlon, The Spartan Race & NZ Breakers curtainraiser.

Project: Programme Coordinator operating costs

Location:

Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate School - 2 Franklyne Rd Otara

Summary:

This grant we are requesting is to cover operating costs for our full time Programme Coordinator based at SEHC School. TRF deliver a mentor/leadership programme for Year 9 to Year 13 students throughout their five year High School journey. By supporting our Programme Coordinator in his work, you will be contributing to his influence which is a catalyst for the transformation of the lives of the young people in his care. Our students in turn, have a positive influence on their broader family and community. So with this grant you are enabling our students to have a stable, reliable, positive and inspiring adult to walk alongside them during the most turbulent and developmentally important five years of their lives.

Expertise:

We have been working for 10 years and the programme is running successfully in five South Auckland secondary schools. We are also linked to seven local Intermediate Schools. All our Programme Coordinators have grown up in The Rising Foundation programme during their schooling life, so they are uniquely equipped to identify with and support the current generation of students. We have a growing reputation as a source of reliable and employable young people. We have excellent support from all our schools and network with employers and tertiary providers, to navigate the transition from school to work effectively. We take the time and effort to know our students well as individuals and ensure they have what they need to flourish.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

1. Our students benefit from being part of The Rising Foundation because they are encouraged to excel in life and in academic achievement. They benefit from having the backing of a professional and qualified team who know how to deal with the complex issues of adolescence. Our students form deep friendships and supportive relationships, they learn to be honest with themselves and with others and they are equipped with a psychosocial framework for healthy decision making. They learn values and principles that help them become enthusiastic and capable leaders who manage themselves well. They benefit from enjoying world class adventure experiences that reinforce their learning each term. Our students also learn practical skills like driving and writing CVs that equip them and help them attain their career goals.
2. Our students' families and schools benefit because our students are more polite, respectful, responsible, caring, grateful, collaborative and cooperative. Our students choose to avoid using violence, abusing substances and resorting to self-harm or suicide.
3. Our communities benefit because every year 25-50 of our students graduate and all go into; full time, meaningful work, tertiary education or trades training. That's great for the community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote youth leadership and participation in employment, education training and business

 

We have an active network of industry training providers, tertiary institutions and employers. From Year 11 we encourage our ākonga to focus on personal, educational and career goals. Our annual 'Careers Camp' and ‘Workplace Exposure weeks’ are geared to provide a glimpse of real work life and help students and recent graduates to talk to people from similar backgrounds in their chosen industries, to confirm the direction is right for them. We see the transition from the world of school to the world of work as a vital time for ensuring a healthy start to adult life. We give our graduates every possible practical help to ensure they navigate this period successfully. We also encourage our ākonga to engage with activities like Polyfest and the school’s Kapa Haka, Samoan, Tongan and other cultural groups and form community relationships that represent their cultural identities in this way.

Project: Deliver health & well-being programme to Papatoetoe East students

Location:

in the grounds of Papatoetoe East School

Summary:

Our primary objective is to enable children to reach their full potential by educating & inspiring them to embrace positive choices for a healthy mind & body. Our philosophy is based on three principles: 
 
1) You are unique: never before & never again will there be another child just like you. We try & make each child feel comfortable with their identity & to show them how special they are. 
 
2) The human body is magnificent: we capture children's imagination using technology that shows them the magnificence of the human body, how it functions & what its needs are. 
 
3) Support & respect: we need to do this for each other, because of the delicate & complex nature of life.

Expertise:

Life Education has been teaching NZ's children for over 30 years, nationally reaching 250,000 students in primary & intermediate schools every year. Peer reviews every few years ensure that our messages & delivery are still relevant & we have the best practice.

Continual & positive communication is vital between Life Education & schools. We have a thorough marketing programme that builds relationships with schools we haven't visited before or it has been a while to help reintroduce us into their teaching schedule. All our educators are also in regular contact with schools they have taught in the past year & are scheduled to teach in again. The lessons are planned to suit the school's needs & integrated with their topic of inquiry thus this is discussed at meetings at the school before our visit.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The outcomes for our Papatoetoe East students are that they’ll be: 
 
PROUD of their identity 
EMPOWERED to make healthy choices 
CONNECTED & engaged with the world 
CURIOUS & have inquiring minds 
RESPECTFUL of themselves, others & the environment 
 
The outcome for our community is that their positive health & well-being will be increased by: 
 
1) participating in follow-up activities provided by the workbooks that help cement positive changes 
 
2) parents/whanau sharing skills, info & support at the parent sessions eg meal plans, seasonal/cheaper eating, how to recycle more in the home, cyber-safety 
 
3) being pro-active & increasing participation in sport, leisure & recreation activities = less time sitting down on technology & increased family time 
 
4) all our different cultures being promoted & celebrated in the classroom which spreads to the wider community to know & believe that their skills & knowledge will create a brighter & inclusive community.  These are also highlighted through our participation in local events.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

We teach the young people of our Otara-Papatoetoe our community through our health & well-being programme how to increase & maintain their confidence through making positive mind & body health choices. These will give them the right skill-sets to enable them to have the highest self-esteem/self-worth & values to enable them to achieve personal, career & community aspirations. 
 
Children report more experiences of bullying behaviour than students from other countries & NZ has the highest rate of youth suicide in the OECD. 
 
Through research, speaking with many facilitators in our community & teachers from local schools, we know there are high levels of children with mental health issues and obesity in our area which when combined with low socio-economic areas, equates to many children believing they are not good enough & they will not have the resources to achieve what they want to when they leave school. 
 
We want to continually empower them at every age & stage we visit their schools on an annual basis to make positive health & life choices & live life to the fullest & banish these beliefs. 
 
We have a rich & diverse community in Counties Manukau with the ethnicity of our students being: 
 
29% - Pacific Island  
29% - Euro  
23% - Maori  
18% - Asian  
1% - Other 
 
To support our Maori & Pacifika students & ensure their language & culture is shared, celebrated & learnt by all, we want to continue & expand our resources that are created in Te Reo, Tongan & Samoan & pro-actively use them on a daily basis, especially to name feelings, key phrases to help communicate how you feel, food & nutrition, the body's systems & community/the environment. This is to create a strong & connected community in our classrooms that feeds to our wider community/the student's whanau. 
 
Our aim is for our growing students to be positive role-models in their community, know who they are & want to be & promote connected communities, simply, be the change that is very much needed in our community.

Our teachers continually update their resources via their on-going training & personal development.
 
Our lesson 'Te Whare Tapa Wha' is requested often by teachers to enable their students to discuss and learn how the four areas of our health: family, mental, physical and spiritual,have an equal role to play in our overall health- ATTACHED

We discuss& role-play the decision-making processes they may come across & go through when seeing their friends & peers smoke or they are offered a variety of substances to smoke.  We talk about the effects smoking has on your brain, body, finances & making decisions. A Pull Apart Torso - full medical school teaching standards (with 28 parts) is used to illustrate points.  Latest research is used from all health sectors in our lessons. We are the largest external programme provider working in schools and are proud of the positive trend in the reduced rate of binge drinking, smoking, bullying and marijuana use amongst NZ youth.
 
- Many of our lessons talk about reduce, re-use & recycle and the ways individuals & the community can work together to improve the environmental health of the Otara-Papatoetoe Local Board community
 
-Our programme has a thread through it promoting about leading an active life and choosing healthy food and drink options
 
-We will be working with whanau groups to enable Life Education Trusts messages to be an intergral part of our communities to fulfill our wish of multi generational education to ensure all ages have equal opportunity to be involved & have a positive impact in & on each other's lives.

Auckland Kindergarten Association Mayfield

Legal status:

Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Community, Environment

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Fruit and vegetable garden with fale

Location:

20R Pearl Baker Drive, Otara 2023

Summary:

Our fruit and vegetable garden will have multiple learning objectives.  We are beginning  our enviro-school journey, motivating our learning community in recycling, worm bins, and reducing waste.  We think fruit tress and vegetables planted in the garden will encourage tamariki to eat more varied and healthy foods and to consider to use less packaging in the future.  As this is a low socio-econmic area tamariki rarely have fruit or vegetables in their lunchboxes.  
The fale will be incorporated into the garden, as a place for reflection, positively re-inforcing culturally identity.  We plan to plant hibiscus and gardenia around the fale.
Long term we hope to harvest water in tanks from the roof, encouraging tamariki to be mindful of water useage.

Expertise:

The teaching team is made up of 3 qualified teachers and 3 local mums (unqualified).  The Head Teacher has previously lead Papakura West kindergarten and team"s enviro-school journey, reflecting to bronze.  Papakura West Kindergarten had a large garden with a particular focus on providing a butterfly release garden.  We released over 200 monarchs a season and started having success releasing yellow admirals.  Ideally this would be a future project we would begin in a couple of years.  We have support from the AKA enviro-schools co-ordinator.  Bunnings Botany have offered support in providing plants and we will use their expertise in which plants are appropriate to the environment.

Dates:

01/07/2020 - 10/07/2020

Promotion:

The garden and fale will be prominent in our outdoor environment, as it is in the entrance area to the kindergarten.  It will be viewed from Pearl Baker Reserve, and Pearl Baker Drive which is visited by local whanau walking and playing. We envisage that the garden and fale will be a community asset appreciated by many people.  We will share news on our facebook page and acknowledge the Otara Papatoetoe Local Board.  We will also share the news on the AKA sharepoint where all kindergartens across the AKA community will view.  We envisage that we will soon begin our enviro-schools journey and our garden and fale area will be shared with colleagues across the sector.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our tamariki, whanau, teachers and members of our local community will all be involved.  Engaging whanau in their child's learning is very important to us.  We believe gardening and sharing produce with our whanau will be beneficial, particularly encouraging healthy eating and establishing healthy eating habits.  We have had success with cherry tomatoes.  We recognise many tamariki in our community do not have access to freshly harvested fruit and vegetables; we envisage sharing any surplus produce with our whanau.  We need more garden beds to provide more space to grow a larger variety of fruits and vegetables.
"Inspiring eco-conscious in children without a load of eco-guilt"
We concur with Andrew and Michelle Shall "It's easy to tell kids that they need to be eco-conscious and recycle because it is good for the planet ... I contend that it is far more important to cultivate an appreciation and love of nature in especially young kids, far before they are saddled with the feeling that they are culpable for the sickness of the earth that they have inherited"
The fale will re-inforce cultural identity.  Placed prominently, sends a message that we recognise and are responsive to our Pasifika community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

Our project involves converting an area into a fruit and vegetable garden, which will incorporate sustainable practices, and to use as a learning resource for our tamariki, their whanau and our community.
The fale will empower, reinforce cultural identity, ensuring cultural safety for our Pasifika whanau.  Pasifika whanau make up the largest cultural group in our kindergarten.  It will be visible from Pearl Baker Drive Reserve. This area meets the aims of being an enviro-school, covering all environmental education concepts as well as providing learning experiences and opportunities to engage in all curriculum areas as stated in our curriculum document Te Whaariki.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

Maori whanau are collaborating with the teaching team to create this garden.  We envisage in the future a waharoa will be placed above the garden gate entryway depicting Mayfield Kindergarten's pepeha.  Maori ways of planting will be implemented in the garden, such as planting by the Maori moon.  A Maori lens will be used when implementing enviro-school kaupapa such as discussion with our tamarikis re: putting rubbish into Papatuanuku's puku.  Sharing of kai is another Maori concept we will implement.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Mayfield Kindergarten has always provided an inclusive curriculum and inclusive environment for all tamariki and whanau.  We have aprovided a ramp for wheelchair access.  We have several tamariki attending with additional needs.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

To grow vegetables and fruit, children will appreciate no packaging required and to eat fresh fruit and vegetables that they have harvested themselves.  We are about to establish a worm bin in the next couple of weeks.  Fruit and vegetable scraps will be put into the worm bin.  The children here enjoy eating fruit particularly but not many have it included in their lunchboxes.  Their lunchboxes are mainly made up of bread, snacks, and yoghurt.  We supply free breakfasts and Mayfield Primary School has been generous and started to give us their fruit leftover on a Friday afternoon.  The tamarikis are really enjoying their generosity. We are contemplating starting to provide bread and jam for morning tea.  Any child who doesn't have a lunch we make up a free lunch for them.  We think the tamarikis would be responsive to eating vegetables that they have grown themselves.

Financial information

Amount requested:

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting money for all of the project but we understand if only a partial could be funded we will accept that and will continue to apply for grants to continue our project.  As we are situated in such a low socio-economic area it is difficult to fundraise, collect donations and source any extra revenue.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will continue to keep on applying for grants.  Our community is low socio-economic so will continue to find charitable trusts to support us. Our whanau do not have surplus funds for monetary donations or fundraising.  Our quote is divided into 3 lists, we will complete each stage as funds are obtained.

The trust supports and encourage youth to perform with professional artists from New Zealand and overseas. From last few years we have been organizing music workshops, concerts involving local and international music professionals to benefit New Zealanders. We have seen a growing interest in kiwi musicians about Indian classical music in past few years.

Summary:

Our Community Trust aims to reach young people and families in need.   The PACT boxing programme sees up to 20 teenage boys attend each session alongside our staff and volunteers, the boys train together 3 times a week and share a healthy meal before being dropped off at school.  Kiwi Games is a community based low-cost (gold coin donation) sports programme that brings families in the community together as kids learn to play new sports in a social, non-competitive setting, around 70 children attend kiwi games.   Some of our kiwi games equipment is twenty years old and in need of replacement, other equipment is for new sports such as ripper rugby.

Expertise:

The Kiwi Games programme has been running in our community for twenty years, the PACT Boxing programme has run for twelve years.  PACT has been established in our community for over twenty years.  Glenn has been responsible for 4 of PACT’s Community Support Programmes. This has involved overseeing the development and operation of each programme as well as the recruitment and training of suitable volunteers.  Phil runs PACT youth for local teenagers on a Thursday night and has taken many of them away to various camps.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community benefit from our sports programmes physically through exercise, through community engagement and connection and through promoting and role modelling the benefits of eating well.  Young people in our community are encouraged to establish good habits around food and exercise, as well as being able to strengthen skills such as resilience, encouragement and commitment. PACT boxing also focuses on other areas of Hauora; mental, social and emotional by developing positive self-esteem.  Through relationships built in these programmes, we can make connections with families in need in our community and provide extra support where necessary.  This could be through the provision of other PACT mentoring / lifeskills programmes we run for at-risk youth, or through referrals, to other agencies, we work with, e.g. South Auckland Christian Foodbank, budgeting services, counselling or parenting/family programmes.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

Pact runs community-based sports programmes that encourage young people to be more active, to eat nutritious food and drink water.  Phil, who runs the Pact Boxing programme picks up at-risk boys in the community and brings them back to the PACT building where they participate in a boxing skills programme that encourages anger management, fitness and community.  Once the boys have finished boxing, they shower and are provided with breakfast before they are dropped off to Papatoetoe High School.   The Kiwi Games programme has run for twenty years in the local community, it is a participation programme that gets local kids out participating and trying new sports.  Parents are encouraged to be part of the programme and connect with other local families.  Fruit is provided as a snack.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$2202.72

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting funding for new sports equipment for both Kiwi Games and our PACT Boxing programme.  Kiwi Games is currently running with equipment that is either falling apart or we currently do not have the equipment we need to play particular sports such as Rippa Rugby.  The boxing gloves that we are using in our PACT Boxing programme have come apart at the stitching and the padding has worn out.  New sports equipment will enable us to run both of these programmes without limiting numbers.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Without funding, we will continue with our programmes without new equipment.  This would mean we couldn't add new sports to Kiwi Games, and we would have to limit the number of young people participating in our programmes to the amount of usable equipment that we have.

Project: The Dancing Wonders

Location:

Allan Brewster Leisure Centre

Summary:

Our aim is to motivate our communities to be fit and stay fit through dance. We conduct
free dance classes run by professional choreographers and fitness trainers. Life is busy and
the first thing that is sacrificed due to busy schedule is fitness. We make fitness
a fun activity. People of all cultures, communities and ages love to dance and we
provide them a free platform. We organise FREE Dance/Fitness classes at Ormiston Activity Centre every Saturday morning. Also we offered free classes in Blockhouse Bay area. We have got very good response from our communities who enjoy dance & music with the added benefit of fitness.

Expertise:

We have been running 'The Dancing Wonders' project since 2018 in different areas of Auckland so we are experienced in handling this community project.Our members have rich experience of more than 10 years of organising similar and bigger
projects. Our Secretary has had his own Production/Event Management Company overseas where he produced and organised various dance and reality shows. Also, our Chairperson has rich experience of organising classes and public engagement for more than 20 years. We have a team of trained choreographers who have been successfully running the project for over a year.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Which community does not love dance & music? Which community does not like to be fit? Almost all the fitness/dance classes are paid. Not every one can afford these classes but our communities deserve to be fit. People of diverse cultures need to come together  and collaborate on a common platform. We provide that platform. There are young people out there who have not started working and there are elderly people who have stopped working and hence are short of funds. They should not be denied of fun and fitness. They deserve to be happy, healthy and enjoy life. Hence, we feel there is a strong need for the FREE Dance/Fitness classes
 
We are proud of the fact that we provide a free and valuable platform to the
people of all communities, cultures and ages. 'The Dancing Wonders' envisages a fit and
healthy society where people come together to learn and enjoy dance. At the same time,
they work towards better health. The expected outcomes are better health, fitness,
learning of new skills of dance, integration of diverse cultures and communities.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

We wish to offer free dance and fitness classes for our communities. People of all ages,
cultures and languages benefit from it. This is celebration of life through dance &
music. People participate in free dance & fitness activities in a stress free environment. They benefit in terms of better health, collaboration with diverse cultures and community engagement. Culture and health are our priorities and through our fun-filled dance/fitness classes, we promote both. 
Our project 'The Dancing Wonders' is already in progress in Flatbush. Many of our participants come from Otara/Papatoetoe areas. They always ask us to start a class in Papatoetoe.  We wish to take the project there so that more and more communities benefit from it.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our mission is to deliver and connect Aucklanders living with a disability to quality opportunities in sport and recreation:
•           Being involved in a sporting activity is beneficial to both their physical and mental health.
•           Showing the community that having a disability does not mean staying on the sideline. 
•           A more inclusive and welcoming community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      Promote better health and wellbeing in the community

 

According to the 2019 Sport New Zealand Disability Plan (in association with the NZ Government) , 
•           from the age of 25 – plus, the proportion of disabled people participating weekly, and the average number of sports and activities 
        they participate in, begins to decline, in contrast to a relatively stable picture for non-disabled up until 75-plus. 
•           Only 63% of disabled Aucklanders participate in sport, against 77% of the non-disabled population.     
 
Parafed Auckland has been working to overcome this inequity by providing quality sport and recreation opportunities for disabled Aucklanders for over 50 years. Being involved in a sporting activity is beneficial to both physical and mental health, showing that having a disability does not mean staying on the sideline.
