Message us, or visit littleschool.co.nz to book a visit. No pressure — just a conversation.

If you've been thinking about Little School — this is the right time to book a visit and secure a spot before the term starts.

We have spaces across Auckland and Wellington. We cater for children from birth to 6 years, and our nursery at St Heliers and Khandallah takes children under 2.

We'd love to show you around. Message us this week.

The number of children being identified as neurodivergent has grown significantly in recent years.

Some of that is better awareness and diagnosis — which is genuinely good.

But some of it is children being placed in environments they were never designed to thrive in, and those environments calling it a problem with the child.

Little School has been working with children across the full developmental spectrum for decades. Our programme — grounded in Te Whāriki, grounded with years of experience about building strong brain foundations.

If you have questions about whether we're the right fit for your child, come and talk to us. We're very happy to have that conversation.

I've spent 40 years in early childhood education.

I've been a teacher, a school founder, a conference speaker in 6 countries, and the President of the Early Childhood Council of NZ.

And the thing I keep coming back to is this: so much of what I know isn't written down anywhere parents or educators can access it.

That's about to change.

Life Learning's professional development courses are almost ready. 25+ courses covering child development, neurodivergence, play-based learning, leadership, and more.

We never have to.
