Te Pahu Community Preschool

The Te Pahu Preschool Group would like to acknowledge the sad news of the passing of Alan Livingston.

Alan was integral to the preschool's success, including being a key member to facilitate the building of our purpose-built early education facility in Te Pahu back in 1991.

More recently Alan lended his time to review our new constitution, and provided us sound advice and support for our transition with the lease of the building.

Thank you Alan for contribution to early childhood education in Te Pahu. Our thoughts are with his family at this time🕊️

The tamariki are planning to open “Coffee Café” here next week. This week we are in the planning stage.

If you have an old coffee machine (no longer working) or coffee mugs (keep cup or takeaway style) we would love to take them off your hands!

Our new ‘4 and 5 year old program’ kicked off this week. The focus of this time is to build life skills through real life experiences, while fostering important dispositions for a love of life long learning.

The official name of our group is in the works - watch this space!
