High Quality Early Childhood Education An indoor/outdoor space is a welcome recent addition to our environment and allows more options in bad weather.
As Strathmore is one of the sunniest suburbs in Wellington we are lucky to have an environment that is almost always (well… usually) bathed in sunshine. Our children enjoy the variety of challenges that its outdoor area promotes for learning, including a HUGE sandpit on one side and a large grassy, sloped playground on the other equipped with an ever-popular fire engine. We care very much for our

Our pukapuka of the week is Owl Babies, about three little owls Sarah, Percy, and Bill who are left in their nest while their mother goes off to find food. While she is away, they wonder where she has gone, if she will come back, and share how they are feeling.
The tamariki have really enjoyed this story and the owl puppets that go along with it. This afternoon while we were tidying up, we found the three baby owls sitting on top of three feelings cards that are usually stuck on the wall in this area. We had a little laugh at how cute it was and also thought it was very appropriate and clever. 🦉🦉🦉❤️

At our kindergarten, one of our special Haere Rā traditions is celebrating the tamariki, kaiako, and other special people who have made an impact on our learning community. We mark these occasions with a special high tea to acknowledge their time with us and wish them well on their next journey.
Yesterday, we celebrated our friend Delisha, who has now turned five and started an exciting new chapter at Kahurangi School alongside her brother and friends.
We wish Delisha all the very best for her school journey and look forward to her popping in for a visit to tell us how it is going.
Haere rā, Delisha! 💖
