The Champion Centre

Who we are

We are more than an early intervention service, we’re a lifeline.

For our tamariki with complex developmental challenges, we provide not just expert therapies, but hope. Through a team of expert teachers and therapists, the Champion Centre helps children and whānau discover their voice, their joy, and their place in the world.

We provide weekly, centred based sessions, where a range of specialists and therapists work collaboratively with parents and caregivers to meet each child’s individual needs.

"Thank you for offering a premature baby programme (under 30 weeks). I had no idea this existed, until I was part of it. But it has been such a godsend, from the early days with feeding help, to the regular assessments leading up to school. We are forever grateful for NICU followed up by the Champion Centre."
