Preschooler’s Progress

We provide 2 Preschool rooms, which cater for children aged 3-4 years and 4-5 years of age. Our programme supports the preparation of young children entering school, ensuring they are independent, capable and confident learners.  Our philosophy and curriculum are based on the New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum Te Whāriki, where family, community and holistic development are key. Te Whāriki's principles, goals and learning outcomes prioritise the child and place emphasis on respectful, reciprocal and responsive relationships. Your child’s progress is recorded in profile books that are made up of their individual work and learning stories about your child’s current interests and learning journey.
