Our qualified and experienced teaching team is proud to provide a programme for children aged 2-5 years where we foster a strong sense of belonging. We do this by encouraging children to show Manaakitanga - caring for each other, and Kaitiakitanga - caring for our environment. The first thing you'll see and feel here is that all of our tamariki are engaged in activities and the session is calm and settled.
