School partnerships

An after-school partnership your community can depend on.

AfterBell Adventures is seeking to partner with Auckland primary and intermediate schools to deliver before-school, after-school and holiday programmes that make a genuine difference for working families.

Why partner with us

What your school community gains

A well-run AfterBell Adventures programme adds real value to your school β€” for families, for the community, and for working parents who need reliable care.

Additional support for working families

Give your community's working parents reliable, high-quality care that fits around the school day.

Professionally managed programme

AfterBell Adventures handles all programme operations β€” staffing, planning, communications and administration.

Dedicated programme staffing

We recruit, train and manage our own team. Your school staff don't need to be involved in the day-to-day running.

Parent enrolment & communication

We manage all parent enrolment, invoicing and ongoing communication, keeping your school's workload minimal.

Safety and operational procedures

Our safety, child-protection and emergency management procedures are professionally designed and implemented.

Flexible use of school facilities

We work with your existing facilities and timetable to minimise disruption while maximising community benefit.

Partnership or licence arrangements

We are open to discussing a range of commercial arrangements including rental, licence or partnership models.

Tailored to your school community

Activities and programme design can be shaped around your school's values, culture and community needs.

How it works

Our partnership process

We keep things straightforward. Here's how a school partnership with AfterBell Adventures typically unfolds.

Step 01

Initial conversation

We start with a no-obligation conversation to understand your school's needs and whether AfterBell Adventures is a good fit.

Step 02

Community needs assessment

We assess demand and identify the right programme structure for your school community.

Step 03

Venue and operating review

We review your facilities together and plan how the programme will operate practically within your school.

Step 04

Partnership proposal

We present a clear proposal covering the programme scope, staffing, commercial terms and operational plan.

Step 05

Programme setup

Once agreed, our team sets up the programme β€” staffing, materials, policies and communication to families.

Step 06

Family enrolments

We open enrolments to families at your school and manage the process from first enquiry to confirmed booking.

Step 07

Programme launch

We launch with confidence, keeping you informed throughout and maintaining open communication as the programme grows.

What we need from you

A supportive partnership

AfterBell Adventures operates with minimal demand on school staff. A good partnership typically requires:

  • Access to agreed indoor and/or outdoor spaces
  • A shared commitment to child wellbeing
  • An introductory communication to school families
  • A named school contact for operational matters
  • Appropriate venue arrangements to be discussed

Is AfterBell Adventures right for your school?

We work best with schools where working families represent a significant part of the community, and where there is genuine demand for quality, convenient care.

If you're a principal, board member or school administrator who wants to explore what an AfterBell Adventures programme could look like at your school, we'd love to have that conversation.
