We take learning outside the walls and boundary of our childcare centre and into the beautiful natural surroundings of Titahi Bay, Porirua. Your child will climb trees, jump in puddles, look for sea shells … learning while having fun leaves them with a lifetime of memories and strong foundation for all future education. Our unique nature-based early childhood programme is delivered by experienced childcare teachers in partnership with parents and whanau.
Holistic learning
Our curriculum emerges from your child’s interests and unfolds and changes each day. As teachers we provide the resources, time, space and support for your child to explore, experiment and try things out. A lot of what we do extends beyond the boundaries of our centre through nature walks and outings – something that sets us apart from others.

Parent Feedback
Their nature walks are amazing for children’s education not only on nature but every that is going on in the community.
My boy has been here three years now and loves ‘go see my friends now’ ‘school open’. We even had to run all the way down once because he was scared school would be closed if we didn’t hurry!
My daughter loves it here! From the nurturing, welcoming staff to the all the different experiences within the centre and outside, the opportunity is amazing.
