Join us for a ‘By the Sea Kids High Tea’ the school holidays! Who says High Tea is just for grown-ups? Our Kids high Tea is a fun, ocean-inspired twist on the classic tradition, perfectly portioned for little ones and served with sparkling harbour views.
Children will enjoy:
- A three-tier stand of sweet and savoury treats - think sandwiches, fruit skewers, mini scones, cupcakes and macarons.
- Their choice of drink - Chocolate, Strawberry or Banana milk, or a fresh apple or orange juice.
- Colouring activities and an ocean-inspired theme to keep little hands busy.
- Plus, every child takes home their very own Stevie the Stingray plush toy (and if they’re lucky, they might even spot the real Stevie swimming by!)
It’s a magical way for kids to join in on the High Tea tradition while you enjoy your own.

Workshop
Join our hands-on Popping Boba workshop. You’ll learn the science behind these juicy flavour bursts and create your own colourful popping pearls from scratch. Experiment with flavours, get creative with colours, and discover how to turn simple ingredients into something seriously cool. Best of all, you’ll get to take your homemade boba home (if you don’t eat it first!). Registrations essential.

Talk / lecture
Inachord Singers Tauranga are proud to invite you to a warm, community‑minded afternoon with Southland soprano treasure Deborah Wai Kapohe. Deborah will share stories from her extensive and varied professional career — a life lived across opera, contemporary Māori music, musical theatre, songwriting, guitar performance, arts leadership, and law. Bring a cushion (though seats provided!) and your favourite mug to maximise feeling at home, and settle into a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere as she opens the door to her creative world with humour, insight, and generosity. Following an intensive workshop the day prior, the afternoon will also feature a small selection of songs from both Deborah Wai Kapohe and Inachord Singers Tauranga, offering a gentle touch of live music to complement the storytelling. With afternoon tea available, free tickets for children under twelve and a portion of proceeds supporting local charities, this gathering promises inspiration, wonder, beauty, and through fellowship, genuine community spirit. Come for the stories, stay for the songs, leave with connection.
