Preschool
Our Vision
We aim to provide a safe and stimulating environment which fosters quality learning, respect and co-operation.
Who we are
We are a small preschool that take up to 40 children aged from 2-5 from Monday to Friday 9am-3pm. Using a Christian based teaching curriculum we create a safe, loving and nurturing environment for children to grow and flourish. Our staff come from different backgrounds and cultures to provide quality care for each and every child.
We believe active play is a vial key in children’s learning. It provides hand on learning, self discovery and authentic relationships. It empowers tamariki (children) to be thorough thinkers and researchers. We value our connections with our local Otahuhu community. Having strong connections to our church, library, and local schools supports our tamariki in feeling a part of a strong and beautiful community.
