BestStart Bremner Road
BestStart is one of NZ's leading early childcare providers. BestStart Bremner Road in Drury provides affordable, high-quality education and award-winning childcare for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers.
We're committed to community and culture to help each child flourish!
At BestStart Bremner Road, we pride ourselves on our integrity and collaboration with the community to create a warm and welcoming environment where everyone feels at home. Our passion for our history and the legends we learn from allows every child to build a strong, successful future from solid foundations. Emphasizing learner identity, we value and incorporate home languages and cultures into our educational settings, ensuring that every child feels seen and respected.
Our centre is situated in a new development area in the heart of Drury, away from the hustle and bustle of traffic, next to the serene Ngakaroa River. Surrounded by lush green vegetation, the calm environment provides an ideal setting for young minds to explore and grow. We cherish our multi-cultural ties, embracing families from various cultural backgrounds including Samoan, Cook Island, Indian, European, Chinese, Fijian, South African, Vietnamese, and Filipino communities.
We offer play-based learning using our curriculum “TE WHARIKI” and maintain the highest standards of care and education. We are in the process of incorporating the RIE approach, which emphasizes respect, trust, and active participation. Our weekly short walks to the nearby playground and school visits for 4-5-year-olds enrich our tamariki's experiences.
