The Finery’s Little Genius Trust

At The Finery, we understand that it can be challenging to determine if your child requires additional support on their learning journey. We also recognize that obtaining professional diagnostic assessments isn't always financially feasible for every family. That's why we've established The Finery’s Little Genius Trust—to support local families from anywhere in Central Otago by providing financial assistance for essential diagnostic assessments, helping tamariki reach their full learning potential.

Applying for Financial Assistance

While private assessments are often quicker and easier to access, they can be costly. The Finery’s Little Genius Trust invites you to apply for financial support. Please send a letter of application detailing your child's situation and the specific type of assessment you are seeking to:

If you are unsure which assessment is suitable, we encourage you to consult with your GP, early childhood centre, or school to help you prepare your application.

We're here to help your child thrive.
