Lollipops Pegasus

Our Story

We have been providing early childhood education for children aged 3 months to 6 years in the North Canterbury area since Pegasus subdivision opened in early 2013. We are popular thanks to our professional, dedicated teaching team who are passionate about growing lifelong learners through our Reggio Emilia inspired approach.

We have a strong belief of primary care in our Nursery, where our youngest tamariki build trusting and long-lasting relationships with a key carer. We also have an enticing art studio where the tamariki can indulge their artistic side and an inviting kai room where the tamariki can dine in a home-like environment fully catered for by our very talented fulltime chef!!

We know that we wouldn’t be able to provide such a high level of care without input from our wonderful whānau, so we really value getting to know you and your aspirations for your tamariki. Forming these trusting and lasting relationships is very important to us, so please do not hesitate to discuss anything with us at any time.

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.
