Ignite your Potential

Welcome to Elevate

In Kaitaia, where opportunities for young people can be limited, our Youth Centre, supported by TRUST, is a vibrant hub empowering youth aged 12-24 to discover their passions and shape brighter futures. The Far North deserves a space where young people can thrive, and our centre provides a safe, inclusive environment to build skills, boost confidence, and foster community connection. By addressing the need for creative and practical outlets, we’re helping Kaitaia’s youth overcome challenges and create a positive outlook for themselves and their community.

Our diverse programs spark creativity, promote well-being, and open doors to new possibilities. Dive into creative arts with Snap Squad (Photography), Art Attack (Visual Arts), or Hook & Flow (Songwriting), get active with Court Kings & Queens (Netball, Soccer, Field Hockey), or master practical skills in Bean Scene (Barista Skills) and Event Boss (Event Management). Led by expert instructors, our hands-on workshops culminate in showcases, tournaments, or portfolios, giving youth a platform to shine and inspire others in Kaitaia.

Our Youth Centre is transforming Kaitaia by offering accessible, engaging programs that build resilience and community pride. With flexible schedules, virtual options, and financial support, we ensure every young person can join in. Together, we’re fostering hope, skills, and connection for the Far North’s youth.
