Partner with us in reaching kiwi kids with character and values education, enabling them to make better choices and become great citizens.

Nationwide

We equip educators with the tools, education delivery resources and professional development to build InnerFit Kids - kids who are resilient, self starters equipped to become winners in the game of life.

Our mission is to see New Zealand kids develop enduring life foundations so they can live a significant and successful life. We aim to reverse some of our countries worst statistics.

InnerFit Kids is a proven approach to equip the influential leaders around a child's life namely Parent, Teacher & Coach in the primary school years, 1-6. Research demonstrates that with the right inputs before age ten, a young person is equipped with qualities such as resilience, self control and respect, providing the foundations for success throughout their lives.

The InnerFit model utilises Physical Education at school as the context for teachers to dig into the learning experiences that games provide by asking the right questions. This develops critical thinking skills and engages kids in conversation that can be later written about and infused into other curriculum subjects. The children are learning in a fun and physical way, enabling them to much better connect the theory to real life situations.

A recent Pilot involving approximately 70% of the children in the Gisborne Tairawhiti region demonstrated the power of the InnerFit approach in developing great character and a "better than before" attitude in whatever situation the kids are involved. Teachers reported more cooperation, improved self-control and enhanced teachability as a result of the InnerFit Kids approach.

We currently reach approximately 10,000 New Zealand primary school children on a daily basis. This is constantly growing through engaging more schools and individual teachers in adopting InnerFit Kids for their classes, with digital delivery if the InnerFit Kids resources providing the opportunity for further scale in delivery.

We are asking for partners to come on the journey with us to see these numbers increase. Every additional child impacted can lead to an improved life outcome as they become teenagers and adults.

Invest in a proven solution - change our negative statistics and see a better future for our country!
