In our nurturing home-like environment, we value whanau involvement, everything we do works around your child’s home routines, our primary caregiving approach ensures consistency between home and centre and helps to build a strong sense of belonging for our children. Here we introduce the basic concepts of Montessori, fostering relationships and independence. Our ‘mini’ adventurers programme occurs weekly and involves getting out and about in our community with our two-year old tamariki with visits to the local library. Weekly yoga lessons are offered to our young tamariki as well.
