Lollipops Papamoa

Our Story

Our fantastic Papamoa centre is centrally located in the heart of Papamoa, its location is convenient for families both in Papamoa and for those who travel to Tauranga and Te Puke.  Our centre prides itself on the relationships we hold with our children and their families and whaanau.

We have a whaanau teacher approach when caring for children meaning every family in our centre is placed alongside two whaanau teachers.  This enables our children to embrace strong and lasting relationships as well as engaging in meaningful and supportive relationships with their families.

ERO Report

The Education Review Office (ERO) is the New Zealand government department that evaluates and reports on the education and care of students in schools and early childhood services. ERO’s reports are used by parents, teachers, early childhood education managers, school principals and trustees, and by government policy makers.

Early childhood services are reviewed on average once every three years. Reviews will be more frequent where the performance of a school or centre is poor and there are risks to the education and safety of the students, or less frequent where a school has a stable reporting history and demonstrates good self-review processes and use of its assessment information.
