We offer a fun, safe space to learn, and you’ll leave each session knowing something new.

🌟 Volunteers Needed – Lunches in Schools Programme 🌟

Mana Hapori are seeking volunteers to support our Lunches in Schools programme.

Since 2022 we have been making and then delivering lunches to schools for children needing a lunch.

If you have some time on a Monday , Tuesday or Thursday please consider getting in touch with us.

Start date: 16 February 2026

What’s involved:
🥪 Coming to the Mana Hapori office- 18 Raleigh Street Leamington
🥪 Helping prepare lunches for tamariki- between 20-40 lunches
🚗Delivering lunches to local schools- Leamington, Cambridge East and Middle School

⏰ Time commitment:
Around 1.5 hours per week (mornings) — once you get the hang of it, it often takes just 30–45 minutes.

📅 Days needed:
Mondays, Tuesdays, or Thursdays
Please get in touch with us by commenting below or emailing [email protected] to find out more or to put your name forward

We believe that regular attendance at school enhances a child’s ability to learn. Providing children with a lunch every day is one small way to support their regular attendance.
