Growing Wings - Whangamata

At Growing Wings we empower our tamariki to reach their full potential.

We offer a child-led, heart-centred approach where relationships are at the core of our philosophy. We ensure tamariki are recognised for all that they are, ensuring that they develop all the tools to succeed at school.

Working with a primary carer will helps tamariki settle and enjoy their time at Growing Wings. They will have a “go to carer” throughout their time with us.

We aim to collaborate with parents making sure that when tamariki leave the home nest they are on the right path to being school ready. We help them grow their wings so they can take flight when they start school as their next chapter.

Growing Wings Early Learning Centre is owned and operated by Rebecca (Becks) Crabb, Luke Crabb, Peter Shepherd and Rhiannon Donkin.

Our team are experienced in Primary school education, Early Childhood education, People growth and Business Strategy.

We are focused on looking after both our staff and tamariki, by fostering a safe and positive space. When happy empowered people work with tamariki, we know they get the best possible care.
