At BestStart South Road, we nurture respectful lifelong learners!

BestStart South Road is a small, family-focused centre in Hawera, the heart of South Taranaki. We stand strong in our community and are immersed in the cultural diversity and iwi values of Ngati Ruānui.

Respect and kindness are behaviours we value and incorporate into everything we do. Our community displays kindness to us through donations and time; our whanau through sharing meals with us, recommending us in the community and building meaningful relationships with us. Our tamariki help one another, support and encourage their friends and lend a hand to hold or a hug.

“Kindness is doing what you can, where you are, with what you have”.

Kind words from parents

"You ladies are excellent teachers and people who do amazing things for our kids. So loving and so understanding and also direct when needed with the children. We are 100% all about what you guys do here. The activities, songs, lessons, all of it. We just moved to Hawera, and the moment we stepped into the Preschool room we felt very good."
Parent
"Our 4 boys have all gone through BestStart South Road. It has prepared them really well for primary school. I have always felt that the staff care for the well-being of my children and take an interest in our family. My oldest primary aged children still love coming back to visit in the school holidays."
Parent
"BestStart South Road has a great range of books and toys that are updated regularly, and there are plenty of outside activities to keep everyone engaged. The recent addition of Storypark online has been a great way to keep families up-to-date more frequently, and personally it is excellent for our older children to see what their little brother is getting up to at preschool."
