The Haumoana Kids Market is more than just a market—it’s a place where tamariki step into the world of business and discover what they’re capable of. Since launching in 2023, it has grown into a vibrant community event with up to 100 stalls, each run entirely by kids. From delicious baking and handmade crafts to art, jewellery, and fresh produce, the creativity on display is inspiring.

But the market is about more than products—it’s about confidence, learning, and growth. Every stallholder gets the chance to practice real-life skills like planning, pricing, marketing, and customer service, all while experiencing the joy of seeing their hard work valued by others. The supportive environment gives tamariki the courage to try new things, believe in themselves, and celebrate their unique talents.

By coming along or getting involved, you’re not just supporting a market—you’re helping build the confidence, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit of the next generation.
