To the Lollipops Pegasus Team

Thank you for your wonderful care and attention of our daughter over the past four and a bit years. She has loved coming and has made some lovely friends. All the best for the future.

I know I have made the right choice at this point in Noah’s schooling to enrol him back at Lollipops Pegasus. I love walking in every morning and witnessing the teachers be engaged with groups and individual children in activities. There is a true sense of calm and the feeling of security within the centre. The range and variety of resources and equipment is great to see and I am always seeing new and different things set up.

Thank you so much to all the staff at Lollipops Pegasus for making it a home away from home for Louie. He has been fully supported by all of the staff in learning, play and making great lifelong friendships. The staff have created special bonds with him and myself that we will treasure and remember forever. We will sadly miss you all when we leave to primary school in a few weeks time.

What's On

Growing Kiwi Gardeners

We are very lucky here at Lollipops to have Anita join us from Growing Kiwi Gardeners each fortnight. The tamariki look forward to her visiting and sharing in her knowledge and wonder of how we can care for Papatuanuku.

Starting School - What can we do during lockdown?

Starting school is a significant event for children and for their families and a milestone which many of us celebrate. It is something many children look forward to. Most children settle easily into school, but a few find adjusting to the change takes time.
