A little about us

Welcome to Avenues Kindergarten

Come and play in the Avenues! Avenues Kindergarten has been a part of our local community for over 50 years. We’re well known for our nurturing approach to early learning, and the importance we place on encouraging creativity, fun and outdoor adventures! 

Discover nature with a large, gorgeous outdoor play area, with an extra grassy reserve located right next to our kindergarten.

Our teachers are 100% degree-qualified and registered. We routinely receive top-of-the-charts ERO reviews from NZ's education review authority for the learning outcomes we provide.

We offer up to 30 free hours* per week, and accept donations ($4 half day/ $6 full day) to help us to continue the great work we do! Come and chat to us about your schedule as we also have longer days available!

Primary teachers often feed back that our children transition particularly well into their first year of schooling from kindergarten. 

Most importantly, we're child-centric! We focus on cultivating their natural curiosity for learning in a safe and encouraging environment.

What makes our kindergarten special?

  • Our large natural outdoor environment has space for children to independently and creatively explore and grow
  • We have a welcoming community where all children and families/whānau are valued for their uniqueness
  • We focus on following children’s strengths and interests
  • We are passionate about supporting children to develop the skills knowledge and attributes to be lifelong learners
  • We are well established in the community having been here for over 50 years
  • Our teachers are all highly qualified and are committed to providing an exciting and innovative learning environment
