Right from the start,
we teach from the heart.
At Heretaunga Kindergartens we’re 100% qualified teachers and we go that extra mile to bring out the best in your tamariki.
We’re local through and through but we’re stronger as a Team. We’ve always been part of your community and we’re here to stay – with outstanding environments to encourage learning and play. We’re your neighbours, your friends, your whānau and we’re right where you need us, in the heart of your community. Click the video below, to see the aroha that goes into educating and caring for our tamariki.
What makes us different
Kindergarten is a place where tamariki learn through play, with and alongside others, building on the skills and knowledge they bring from their home environment. Our 100% qualified teachers/kaiako weave together the principles and strands of Te Whāriki in collaboration with tamariki, whānau and community to create a localised and individualised learning programme.
Enviroschools is an environmental action based programme where tamariki are empowered to design and lead sustainability projects.
We use Storypark as a simple and user-friendly platform to share children's learning and stories with parents and whānau.
NZK: We're part of New Zealand Kindergartens (NZK) which is the national voice of Kindergarten.
SafetyNest makes Health & Safety and Compliance easy for New Zealand Early Childhood Education centres.
