Welcome to Southern REAP

Providing life–long learning
in rural communities

Southern REAP (Rural Education & Activities Programme) provides life–long learning opportunities to people of all ages across rural Southland, Fiordland, and the Wakatipu.

Thirteen REAPs throughout New Zealand work closely with education institutions, government agencies and community groups to deliver educational opportunities not otherwise available in rural communities in accordance with a Ministry of Education contract, the Tertiary Education Commission, or individual contracts.

Southern REAP delivers programmes to the entire community spectrum from early childhood through primary and secondary schooling to adult community education.
