NZALT Clusters 2024
NZALT clusters are regional networks of support for language teachers where you can meet with other language teachers in your area to share experience, ideas, resources, and moderation. Afternoon tea is provided, and petrol costs are able to be covered if you need to travel further afield to attend the cluster.
If you would like to facilitate a cluster group in your area, please contact Juliet Kennedy to find out more.
We will update our website with the cluster dates and details as they are confirmed. If you would like to get in touch with your local NZALT cluster leader you can find their details below.
