About us

Our indoor and outdoor environment promote the Montessori principles of peace and serenity and holistic development.  Outside we have a wonderful home-like and tree-filled garden so the children can learn about sustainability and the care of living things.

We grow our own vegetables and operate a worm farm. Opportunities are provided for children to enhance their scientific understanding by indulging in sand and water play, construction and outdoor games.  Our new playground equipment enables creativity and promotes co-ordination, motor-planning and large muscle development.

Our team welcomes the involvement of parents and families and is committed to ensuring a positive learning environment and high quality programme aligned with both the Montessori philosophy and the New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum (Te Whāriki).
