BestStart Palm Springs

Each week, we embrace our beautiful local community by engaging in centre excursions.

During every adventure, children learn new skills through discovery - whether during a stroll past the local shops or a trip to the beautiful sand dunes of Papamoa Beach. From driftwood to interesting shells, we bring our treasure back to the centre so our explorers can investigate more and learn about our natural environments around us.

Within our centre, we also offer a range of engaging extra-curricular activities such as ballet and swimming lessons. We are really proud of our HUGE outdoor playground with two purpose-built whare, an extra-large sandpit and our very own vegetable garden!

Our Set for School programme helps prepare our preschoolers for primary school by developing essential literacy and numeracy skills. We also create opportunities for children who will be attending the same school to spend time together, helping them build future friendships and become familiar with one another before they start. This gives children the confidence of knowing friendly faces as they begin their school journey.
