U-PLAY is where Upper Hutt families come together for school holiday fun – no boredom allowed here!
Every school holidays, the teams from Upper Hutt Libraries, H₂O Xtream Aquatic Centre, Whirinaki Whare Taonga, and Community Partnerships at Upper Hutt City Council host a fizzing line-up of free and low-cost holiday events.
We often partner up with local businesses, sports clubs and active recreation groups to offer have-a-go sports sessions and give local kids the opportunity to move, enjoy the outdoors, and build team skills.
From craft sessions, code cracker challenges, to have-a-go golf or intro to darts: U-PLAY is for you, and for keeping our local tamariki (kids) busy, active, and entertained during the holidays.

We also publish a timetable of holiday events available for downloading here, usually two weeks before the start of the school holidays. Printed brochures are available at the same time from Upper Hutt Libraries, Council reception, Whirinaki Whare Taonga, and H₂O Xtream Aquatic Centre.
