Attendance tracking and roll call for New Zealand community centres

Community houses, centres and halls run a dozen different groups through the same rooms in a week — playgroup, ESOL, exercise classes, the budgeting service, the hall hire on Saturday. Funders and grant bodies want to see how many people each programme reached, and a clipboard on the front desk rarely produces a clean number. Clock-In does community centre attendance tracking in NZ by letting people sign in on a tablet at the door, so every programme builds its own headcount automatically.

Community centre attendance tracking on a reception sign-in tablet in New Zealand
The Clock-In kiosk · no app needed

Visitors don't need an app or an account. Each programme can ask its own questions at sign-in, and coordinators run a funder report for that programme whenever one is due. Clock-In helps you maintain clear attendance records and supports your building's emergency procedures.

What community centre attendance tracking looks like with Clock-In

A funder report for each programme

Pick a programme and a period and download a funder report as a PDF and CSV: total visits, visits per day, and a breakdown by each question you ask, such as age group or suburb. Groups of fewer than five people are hidden, and the report is saved as of the day you ran it.

Different questions for each programme

Playgroup can ask different questions to ESOL. Give each programme its own sign-in point and its own form; every visit records which form was used, so each programme’s numbers stay separate.

A door kiosk with no app for visitors

A tablet at reception shows your centre's sign-in screen. Visitors tap their name, or add themselves as a one-off, and they're done. Nothing to download.

See who's in the building now

The live view shows everyone currently signed in across every room — useful for reception, for lock-up, and for knowing which spaces are in use.

One-tap roll call in an evacuation

If you have to clear the building, start a roll call from the live list and confirm each person safe. Drills and real events are recorded.

How sign-in works at a community house

  1. 1

    Open the link on a tablet at reception

    Put your centre's Clock-In link on a tablet at the front desk, with a printed QR code for people who prefer their phone.

  2. 2

    People sign in and answer your form

    Visitors and regulars tap in when they arrive and answer that programme’s questions. An optional PIN keeps similar names apart.

  3. 3

    Live list, roll call and funder reports

    Coordinators see who's in from any device and can switch to a roll call in an emergency. When a report is due, run a funder report for the programme and period as a PDF and CSV.

Community centre sign-in questions

Can we get attendance records for funding reports?

Yes. Run a funder report for any programme and period and download it as a PDF and CSV. It shows total visits, visits per day, and a breakdown by each question you ask at sign-in. It shows totals only — no names or exact times — and any group with fewer than five people is hidden, so it is safe to share with a funder.

Can we ask visitors questions when they sign in?

Yes. Your centre chooses the questions — text, number, dropdown, date or yes/no — such as age group, suburb, or whether it is their first visit. Questions you mark as sensitive ask the visitor for consent before they answer, and free-text answers to sensitive questions are never included in a funder report.

Do visitors need to download an app?

No. The sign-in screen runs in a browser on your centre's tablet. Visitors tap their name, or add themselves as a one-off visitor — no app, no account.

Can we count each programme or class separately?

Yes. Set up a separate sign-in point per room or programme; each keeps its own attendance list and can show its own form, so playgroup and ESOL can ask different questions and be reported on separately. Multiple locations are included on the Growth plan.

Is there a sign in system for a community house with lots of casual visitors?

Casual visitors can be added at the kiosk in a couple of taps without a full record, so drop-ins still show up in your headcount and your roll call.

What does it cost for a community centre?

Starter is NZ$29 a month for up to 25 people; Growth is NZ$79 a month for up to 200 and includes multiple locations. Sign-in forms and funder reports are included in every plan. It is a flat monthly fee for the centre, not per person, with a free 30-day trial and no credit card.
