BestStart Cranford Street

We pride ourselves in being a creative and bubbly centre with four classrooms, supporting productive partnerships (ka hikitia) and fostering children's learning and development through every age and stage.

We value children’s play as part of the learning journey through adventure, fun, and friendship. Our tamariki (children) develop independence, confidence, and skills that set them up for a lifelong love of learning.

At BestStart Cranford Street, we are committed to supporting and empowering each child as a unique individual, helping them become competent and confident learners. Your child's learning journey and milestones are captured and shared through Storypark, our safe online communication system, where you can stay connected to their daily activities and progress.

We value and teach important principles, including:

• Respect: for themselves, diverse cultures, the environment, and the people around them.
• Empathy and Compassion: understanding and being considerate of others’ needs.
• Independence: enabling children to take ownership of their learning and routines.
