BestStart Te Awamutu

Supporting children in their growth and allowing each child to blossom in their own unique way. 

At BestStart Te Awamutu, we believe the community plays an integral part in our early childhood centre and curriculum. We foster reciprocal relationships through participating in excursions and nurturing relationships with our local community organisations.

At our centre, you will find a welcoming and warm atmosphere where whānau and the community play an important part in centre life. We love to celebrate all the cultures and acknowledge their importance. From Matariki celebrations to movie nights, visits from our local police to exploring at the park, we never miss an opportunity to make connections that help our children grow strong and proud of who they are and where they are from.

Our tamariki are nurtured as they make connections and establish their roots, getting ready for learning. In partnership with whānau, we tend to their needs, embracing their uniqueness and the diversity they bring. Our families have so much to offer and we embrace their skills and wisdom, incorporating their insights and knowledge into our learning programme.
