EDUCATORS
qualified & caring staff
We highly value our excellent teaching staff who bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the Centre. Our dedicated staff hold full registration and ECEC qualifications and many have worked with us for a number of years. This creates a secure environment where long-lasting relationships are formed with our children, families and community.
Our staff, through our values and vision, implement the principles of the National Curriculum and Te Whaariki, providing parents with regular updates through their children’s individual learning portfolios.
​
HIGH STAFFING RATIOS
We maintain higher staffing ratios than the Ministry of Education requirements and many other childcare centres. For the babies and under two year olds we have a ratio of 1:3 and for the over two year olds we have a ratio of 1:7.
