You're welcome to visit them anytime, although they will not be able to spend time with you until after hours.

You're invited to the pōwhiri to welcome the recruits and families to the New Zealand Police. It's on Monday morning of their first week at 9:00am and it will be followed by a morning tea at the Police College. If that's a public holiday, it will be moved to the next working day.

At "The Café" you can buy coffee, lunch, and dinner. Families and friends can have meals with the recruits in the dining room. You'll need to purchase a meal ticket from "The Café". There is a range of kids-friendly food items available.

If you'd like to stay overnight or for a weekend, there are many inexpensive local motels and a campground with cabins in easy walking distance.
