✨ A Fresh New Look for Magic Sparks ✨
We’re excited to share our new logo for Magic Sparks!
This refreshed look reflects who we are — a nurturing, connected environment where every child is supported to discover their own spark and love of learning.
While our look has evolved, our values haven’t changed. Our dedicated Kaiako, warm, inviting learning spaces, and commitment to partnering with Whānau remain at the heart of everything we do.
We have spaces available now - so get in touch if you are not already part of our Whānau, we’d love to have you join us. 💛

We are looking for a new centre cook.
Qualifications and experience are an advantage but not required.
You will need to be able to work independently, be adaptive to children’s nutritional needs, create nutritious and delicious meals for children under 5, maintain a safe and hygienic commercial kitchen and enjoy working with children, teachers and families to foster healthy eating habits and an understanding of how food can nourish our bodies and support our wellbeing.
This could be the perfect role for someone needing part time/school hours. We are looking for someone 4-5 days a week from 9-230.
If this sounds like the perfect job for you - send Jaydie your C.V and cover letter.

During the chilly days we still offer opportunities for children to get outside and engage with nature. Our families are supportive of our programme and make sure their children have suitable clothing so they are able to have fun while they learn. ❄️

Please note - Further to the announcement from the government at 1pm today, we will be moving into L2 COVID alert at 6pm this evening. Level 2 means that the disease is contained, but the risk of community transmission remains. It is safe for children to attend Early Learning Services.
Please use the contract tracing QR code that we have displayed as you come into the centre or fill in our contract tracing register.
If children are sick, they must stay at home seek medical advice (phone health line on 0800 358 5453) or contact your GP and get tested if you have flu like symptoms
We will continue to keep you updated as we go along.
Regards,
Peta Turner
