Learning Adventures Ashhurst

Rainbow magic! 🌈

The tamariki loved spotting a rainbow across the sky. Moments like these spark curiosity, conversations, wonder, and learning through nature. ✨☁️💙

A big thank you to the wonderful Ashhurst Crafting Community for these beautiful knitted and crocheted creations. ❤️❄️

Made with love and kindness, these warm winter items are FREE for anyone in the community who may need them. They are just located down our main hallway. We are so grateful for the care and generosity shown to help keep our community warm this winter.

💙✨ We are so proud to share that our centre is now an official drop-off point for pyjamas for The Kindness Collective ✨💙

As an early childhood community, we know how important warmth, comfort, belonging, and care are for every child. A simple pair of pyjamas can help a child feel safe, cozy, and ready for restful sleep during the colder months. 🧸❄️

Through this kaupapa, our tamariki are learning about kindness, empathy, manaakitanga, and what it means to support others in our wider community.

If you would like to support this amazing cause, we would love for you to bring along a new pair of children’s pyjamas to our centre donation box over the coming weeks. Or you can donate here:

Thank you for helping us show our tamariki the power of caring for others and working together as a community. 🌈🤍

Pink shirts, big hearts, and a whole lot of aroha 💗

On Friday our tamariki and Kaiako came together to celebrate kindness, inclusion, and standing up against bullying for Pink Shirt Day. From bright pink outfits to shared laughs and caring moments, our centre was filled with positivity and connection 🌸

We also enjoyed a special Pink Ribbon Breakfast with our team to help raise awareness and support for breast cancer. A beautiful reminder of the power of community, kindness, and supporting one another 💕

At our centre, we believe even the smallest voices can make a big difference — through friendship, empathy, respect, and caring for others every day.

Ka mau te wehi everyone! Thank you to our wonderful whānau and teaching team for helping create a space where everyone feels seen, safe, and valued 🌈

Little learners, big smiles, and endless possibilities 🌈

Happy Tuesday whānau 🌸
Come and get creative in Kahikatea with the buttons this morning ☀️

This year, we're supporting The Kindness Collective's PJ Project.

Up until the 12th June, we'll be collecting brand new pyjamas - our centre is a drop-off point if you'd like to donate in person, or you can donate online if that's easier.

Every pair of pyjamas makes a real difference - helping bring comfort, kindness, and a little extra warmth to tamariki across Aotearoa who need it most 🫶

Our centre is a drop-off point if you'd like to donate pyjamas in person, or you can easily donate money online if that's easier.
