Kia Ora and welcome to Early Learning Counties Manukau Alfriston College. We invite you and your Whanau (family) to experience an environment that welcomes individuality and promotes lifelong learning.We are a high quality, well-resourced Early learning Centre with qualified, registered teachers and teachers in training. An environment where children have the opportunity to make their own choices and are affirmed as capable and independent learners.
What makes us unique?
ELCM Alfriston College is situated on the school grounds of Alfriston College and serves the growing community in Manurewa. We are in close proximity to Botanical Gardens where children enjoy regular excursions.
At ELCM Alfriston College we value you as part of our centre and encourage you to be involved in your child’s journey through their preschool years. We look forward to building relationships so that together we can collaboratively create valued learning opportunities for your child.
Our centre is influenced by the Pikler and Reggio theories. These approaches embrace love and respect where children develop at their own pace and inquiry learning. The environment is structured so children have the freedom of choice and the opportunity to explore the environment in an unhurried manner. Teachers will support children’s inquiry learning and together become co-researchers.
ELCM Alfriston College and surrounding schools have built relationships and communications to enhance the development of positive ongoing transitions to school for all children attending our centre.
