Our nursery room is spacious and well-lit, with a special space for called, "The nest", for our littlest tamariki. There is a big outdoor space with a sandpit and lots of fun climbing equipment. Our teachers have a passion for creating close, reciprocal relationships. We have key teachers for each child, so that the child can form a strong sense of trust and bond with their kaiako.
