Our mission is to provide quality early childhood education and care services for people in the Mangere area with an emphasis on Samoan language and culture. We provide all meals and travel for families who need it.
Values Based Education & Care
Our programme is Christian-based, being affiliated with the CCCS Mangere East Church.
We endeavour to teach Christian values and behaviour that allow children to develop spiritual awareness in a bilingual Samoan setting.
Transport
We provide daily transport for children to and from the Centre for families. This service is free for all parents who participate, for children over 2 years. Please ask about this when you enrol your child.
Meals
Our meals are nutritious, wholesome, delicious and healthy, and include Samoan menus. We provide morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea for children enrolled in our all day programme.
Quality Staff
Over 80% of our Educators are qualified and registered with the NZ Education Council. We have high audit-child ratios. Our Educators are all bilingual in English and Samoan.
Settling Visits
You are welcome at any time to tour the centre to familiarise your child. Once you have made the decision to enrol your child, we encourage settling visits to introduce your child to the surroundings, teachers and other children.
Our goal is to know as much about your child in order to design and deliver an individualise learning programme for your child.
We look forward to welcoming you and your child in becoming part of the Taeaofou aiga.
