Activities for rangatahi (young people) in West Auckland at Zeal
Zeal West is a dedicated youth centre in the heart of Henderson, located near West Wave. We have a dance/rehearsal space, recording studios, a digital design lab and more. Here’s what we’ve got on offer!
Hangs
On Monday – Friday, 3-5.30pm, we run free afternoon hangs for young people. We provide a chilled out, safe environment with Xbox, food and Wi-Fi, and our youth workers are trained to provide additional care if needed.
Zeal Nights
On Friday from 7 – 10pm, we get out and about to connect with local young people. We also have an outdoor dance floor and basketball hoop set up out front at Zeal.
Digital equity
We believe every young person in West Auckland should have access to the digital world, so they can learn skills, get awesome opportunities and be set up to thrive on their terms. We’ve launched a programme in West Auckland schools where you can learn to refurbish a computer, get to take one home yourself, get more devices into your community and protect your environment. Enquire below for more info or donate a device.
