BestStart Botany Junction is a modern early learning centre located in Botany, Auckland. We provide high-quality early education and award-winning childcare for children aged from 2-5 years old.

Be your own kind of Beautiful.

At BestStart Botany Junction, we believe each child's uniqueness is what makes them truly beautiful. Each child’s uniqueness, individual needs, and well-being is at the forefront of everything we do. We respect the individuality of every child and believe in empowering children to develop their own sense of identity to enhance their mana, providing them with the confidence, courage, and resilience for lifelong learning.

Our teaching is focused on learning through play and promotes the belief that children are full of potential and capable of developing their own learning with the support of parents and teachers. We provide a culturally rich, respectful learning environment where all cultures are acknowledged, respected, and celebrated. We encourage our whanau to share their culture with us which supports making lasting links between the centre and home, reinforcing a sense of belonging.

BestStart是新西兰最大的幼儿教育机构,我们服务于新西兰幼儿教育行业已经有22 年了。在全国各地,我们有270多家幼儿园以及众多具有新西兰幼儿教育资质的教师。BestStart的所有幼儿园都隶属总部直接管理,因此我们拥有一支强大的教育领导团队确保和提高每个BestStart幼儿园的教育质量。

我们采用的新西兰早教教材- Te Whāriki是享誉世界的。在新西兰,儿童早期教育提倡孩子从玩中学习,注重孩子个人的喜好和发展,由孩子自己决定想要学什么以及怎么学,从而使他们逐渐形成适合自己的学习方法。众多著名的研究报告表明,教会了孩子掌握知识的方法才更有可能使他们在以后的学习和成长过程中赢得成功。这个短片就是向您简单介绍一下,在我们BestStart幼儿园孩子们是怎么样从玩中学习的。

kind words from our parents

Nizar Sahib

My granddaughter enjoys the centre. Teachers are wonderful, engaging, helpful and very caring. The centre is very warm, clean and tidy. Kids have many activities to do, which is great. I have noticed that kids are very open to teachers and are always learning new things about different cultures and traditions, it is very nice to see this kind of diversity in the learning.
