Volunteering Opportunity

Wings Over Wairarapa would not be the event it is without the outstanding help of Volunteers

There are multiple reasons why you should register to Volunteer at Wings Over Wairarapa 2023.

Not only is it fun and hugely rewarding, but it also offers opportunities to network, make friends & develop new skills as well as applying existing ones

Note: if you put your name down to volunteer in February, you don’t need to apply again. We will be in touch!

Here’s a snapshot of Volunteer positions

  • Soon we will be calling for volunteers to help us across the entire event. If you prefer to participate in the Take Flight programme, these are some of the roles we will have available:

    Facilitator Support:
    If you are passionate about education, interested or have skills in a particular area of STEAM, flight or aerospace, you may want to support a Provider to deliver their activity.

    Take Flight Logistics:
    Help get students on and off buses, help students and teachers find their way around the site, accompany students to workshops and help manage large groups at the registration area or around the aerodrome site.

    Mentors:
    Whether you are an older school student, or an adult who has expertise in a particular area, register your interest as a mentor to guide and pass on your skills to a young person with similar interests. We encourage older students, cadets or young people who have recently left school to share their experiences with others, either as a conversation or a talk.

  • If you have volunteered before, and want to perform the same role, please let us know when you are registering. Tell us what other skills and experience you have so we can place you in a role that suits best.

    In the meantime, if you have any general enquiries, please contact volunteer@wings.org.nz
