Vodafone Events Centre is committed to be the largest free schools programme in New Zealand for arts experiences delivered by a venue. Together with AUT University, the Ministry of Education and our partner arts organisations and educators, we are proud to offer free high quality arts educational programmes and subsidised events to thousands of students.
For nearly a decade, it has been an official Learning Experiences Outside the Classroom (LEOTC) provider for the Ministry of Education and has consistently exceeded attendance targets and requirements for the past five years.
“Children from low income families who take part in arts activities at school are three times more likely to get a degree.”
