      Exploring Board Games

      Let's get together on the first Saturday of the school holidays to share our favourite board games, picnic/BBQ and play in the park. 

      Club Days are all about connecting and spending time with other gifted and twice-exceptional kids. Bring along your favourite games to share, or just come and join the others.

      Parents/caregivers need to stay too and are welcome to join in. It's a great chance to relax, share stories and make new friends. 

      BYO snacks, lunch or BBQ food.

      Outhwaite Hall is a small centrally located Auckland Council venue, with its own carpark, park, playground and attractive BBQ area. We have exclusive use of the venue for this event. 


      Club Days are free for all Members of NZAGC Auckland & Waikato Branches (Explorers).
