BestStart Grey Lynn

We embrace the philosophy of 'He waka eke noa, we're all in this together.'

We believe in working together to create a place where all are respected and given the opportunity to grow and flourish. We support tamariki (children) by building strong connections with the community, each other, and the natural world around them (Papatuanuku).

Our beautiful playground provides a challenging, natural environment, a lovely, peaceful place for learning moments. The natural surrounding engages the senses, cultivates curiosity, and encourages exploration. We are surrounded by parks and reserves, which feature abundant trees and greenery, creating a park-like atmosphere at the centre.

We're dedicated to reducing our environmental impact and promoting sustainability. We value our connection to the Earth and engage with the wider community by sharing healthy food through our community pantry and composting leftovers.

We provide a well-balanced, nutritious menu, that is endorsed by the Heart Foundation. Our seasonal menu offers a variety of delicious meals, rotating weekly every 4 weeks, and is available for viewing at the centre.
