Separate Under and Over Two's Areas

The centre offers three separate areas:

  • An infant area for babies up to the age of 18 months.  This area includes a vibrant playroom, a quiet sleep area and a safe and stimulating outdoor area.

  • A toddler area for children aged 18 months to 3 years and a 3 - 5 year old area. Each of these areas can be opened up to provide a shared learning space for the toddlers and older children.

 

Hours

The centre operates between 7.30am and 5.30pm each week day except public holidays. We are open over the Christmas holiday season excluding statutory holidays.

Getting to know each other

We have an open door policy and encourage parents/caregivers to spend time at the centre getting to know our educators and the routines that we incorporate into our programme, but for any new enquires it is advisable to make an appointment so that time can be spent with you showing you around our centre.

Your child’s learning and development milestones are documented in individual profile books which are regularly updated by our staff. These books are freely available for parents to view and share with their children and wider whanau/family.

Outdoor Play

Nutritious Meals

Morning and afternoon teas and lunches are nutritionally balanced – as well as being delicious of course! We provide plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables to ensure that each meal is meeting the needs of busy young children.


Staff

Selecting the best staff possible is not a task we take lightly. Every staff member has been selected for their valuable experience and willingness to develop our centre into a nurturing and exciting centre where children can develop to their best potential. All of our staff are either fully qualified or in current early childhood education training. Every member of staff individually contributes to a rich and diverse learning experience for the children. Our staff are supported with ongoing training opportunities and professional development.
