Our Early Childhood Programmes

Playgroup
0 - 3 years
A gentle introduction to social interaction and creative play. Accompanied by caregivers, children engage in activities that stimulate imagination and nurture early development in a warm and supportive environment.

Nursery
2.5 - 3.5 years
A secure, home-like setting where young children can explore their world. Through storytelling, singing, and creative play, children develop security, curiosity, and a love for learning.

Kindergarten
3.5 - 6 years
Supporting holistic development, we balance structured activities with free play, helping children build a foundation for academic learning while fostering essential social and emotional skills in a nature-rich environment.
Bush Kindergarten
Our Ngahere Programme
A unique offering where children from our Kindergarten spend mornings exploring the natural world. Set in the bush-clad site of our school, this programme allows children to connect with nature, fostering physical health, emotional resilience, and a deep appreciation for the environment.



Morning Tea
We provide homemade morning teas, like our famous sourdough buns, with children also bringing fruit from home and helping prepare the shared meal.This special time encourages connection, cooperation, and the enjoyment of wholesome food together.
