KiwiClass Membership

KiwiClass is a non-profit incorporated society that was established in Wellington in 1995.  Our mission is to provide education and support for adult refugees and migrants in the Wellington region whose first language is not English. 

KiwiClass members are the backbone of the organisation. Our voluntary Board is elected by the members at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) and it is the Board that sets KiwiClass’ strategic direction and monitors its performance.

Membership of KiwiClass is open to all persons and organisations who wish to support and promote the objectives of KiwiClass, and who agree to abide by our Constitution.

We keep society members in touch with KiwiClass activities and invite them to attend our AGM, usually at the end of May, to participate in choosing our Board members.

Society member applicants are approved by the Board and advised of their success or otherwise following the meeting at which their application is considered. A Board member may contact the applicant to find out more about their interest in KiwiClass before a final decision is made. 

To apply, please email our CEO:

From MCLaSS to KiwiClass In November 2019 we changed our name - a move that was decided by our students, and for our students. For nearly 25 years we have been known as MCLaSS, Multicultural Learning and Support Services. After extensive consultation with our students, we found that most didn't know what MCLaSS stood for, and that they had no personal connection to the name. After a lot of discussion and feedback, we asked our students and clients to vote on a new name and a new logo. The results were clear: our new name would be KiwiClass. Our students report that the new name makes them feel more welcome, and like a real member of their new home. We are excited to welcome you to KiwiClass!
