We offer your child and family a secure and dynamic educational environment.

Our professional teaching team is passionate in their belief that children learn best through play.  Teachers provide a variety of experiences that challenge and stimulate further learning opportunities. 

The principles and strands of Te Whaariki (the national early childhood curriculum) are embedded in our practice. 

As teachers, we focus on each child's strengths and interests and build knowledge, skills, and understandings through ongoing observation, assessment and planning.  We value the uniqueness of each child, and work hard to ensure that learning opportunities are not limited by gender, age, ethnicity or ability.

Children are encouraged to make choices to experiment, explore and have fun in well-resourced curriculum areas.

At KiNZ Early Learning Centres, your child will have the opportunity to:

• feel confident about who they are and develop responsibility and a sense of independence
• look after themselves, others and the environment
• work and play alongside other children and adults
• persevere, problem-solve and take risks
• develop effective communication skills
• learn about limits, boundaries and routines
• be creative and expressive
• develop early mathematics, literacy and science skills
• value mistakes as learning opportunities
• have fun and develop a passion for learning and a love of life

We believe in the importance of planning and reviewing our practice to extend and enhance every child’s capabilities.  New Zealand has a unique bicultural heritage and we endeavour to reflect this in our environment and programme.

We promote respectful, open and honest relationships between children, parents/whanau, and staff.
