What we offer
Gardner Road is a high-quality and affordable kindergarten that has been providing pre-school education for local families/whanau for 50 years. Our kindergarten is licensed for 37 children per session and we employ 6 fully-qualified teachers. All of our Teachers have been with us for no less than 6 years, that means that our staff are happy and passionate about their role, and you can be assured of a stable and consistent teaching environment.
Our session ratio of 1 fully qualified teacher for every 8 children is well above the national standard for 3 to 5 year olds. Compare this to other local kindergartens and you'll understand why Gardner Road children get more dedicated one-on-one attention.
