Fees are customised according to need, analysis & numbers of students and adults involved. 

Learn-Now Student Programmes

Financial Literacy

The 8-13yo students enrolled recently, are

  • Designing small businesses.

  • Tuning in teamwork & leadership roles.

  • Market researching & strategic planning.

  • Event managing a 'mini market' with it all.

  • Earning, spending, saving, gifting and investing enroute - for real. 

​

Local and global teams of Learn-Now students from schools are also involved in a 'NZ-Go-Global' foster student, poverty easing, power-enabling project. Contact us for more details. You're welcome to join us - for even just this.

Digital Literacy

Digital technologies and competencies are woven through all Learn-Now programmes, as required for full participation in our society. This includes knowledge, skills, and behaviours involving the effective use of digital devices and tools for realities that involve compassion, communication, expression, collaboration and advocacy.

​

Students learn to interact, design and manage

  • online forums, polls, websites & clubs;

  • presentations (not in powerpoint) & profiles;

...leading, facilitating, coaching & mentoring.​

Global Citizenship

Global Citizenship Education (GCE) is a framing paradigm which, at Learn-Now level, begins to develop the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes the students need for securing a world which is more just, peaceful, tolerant, inclusive, secure and sustainable. Students are currently involved in:

​

  • training their brain for greater effectiveness

  • getting solar support into third world areas

  • partnerships with students beyond NZ

  • design/development of a KidzConference

  • ePal and Penpal connections globally... 

Leadership Development

Learn-Now empowers, engages and enables its students to work with the TOP 6 leadership competencies identified by top leadership companies globally - in this order:

  • Building relationships

  • Effective communication

  • Developing & coaching others

  • Planning and organising

  • Problem solving & decision making

  • Strategic thinking

...teaming up with an inter-school focus enroute.​

Future Focused Insights

"To prepare for the future, we need to shift from thinking about jobs and careers to thinking about challenges and problems...". Learn-Now believes creativity geared toward innovation is key. So, it's adopted the STEAM, not STEM ethos to its teaching and learning practices.

Know these also structure Learn-Now's design. Staff partner with global forums 'to keep sharp'.

  • Enabling the community to grow

ABOUT LEARN-NOW

Learn-Now was established in 2002, with Ministry of Education eLearning research and development funds.

Its roots began in 1997 and later became an award winning programme for its style & outcomes. In more recent years,  it's been further endorsed by several MOE reps, including ERO, principals, tertiary sector 'shoulder taps' and this year, by teams as far as Asia. 

​

Initially, it was similar to being an online school - it had its own teachers, curriculum, resourcing and students (and unlike schools - its own research base). 

​

Now, while it'll maintain its learn 'now' ethos, it moves into a phase which partners with the Sustainable Development Goals with the UN - within 'KidzClubz'. That's its programming base - and the creatively interactive factor we facilitate for the kids.
