At Busy Bees Katikati, we value every child and see them as unique and a special taonga. We understand that your child’s education and care is a priority and that choosing the right centre can be a big decision. We would be delighted to share in your child’s learning journey. You’re welcome to call or visit anytime.
We are open 7.30am - 5.30pm Monday to Friday.
Our Environment
Our approach is guided by the uniqueness of each child. We recognise that every child is different, and we strive to meet their individual needs by creating a safe, nurturing, and challenging environment. Our philosophy, "Ko te ahurei o te tamaiti, arahia ō tātou mahi," embodies our belief in this approach. We are a centre that values community involvement and cultural diversity. We endeavour to get tamariki out into the community as much as possible and take regular trips to the local park and library, where we participate in community events such as Matariki and Christmas parades. We also teach the importance of taking care of our environment by picking up rubbish in our community.
Our centre has a large backyard providing endless opportunities to explore the natural environment! We are proud of our multi-cultural environment and celebrate the uniqueness of our centre and everyone within it. We are confident that our centre will provide a warm, welcoming, and stimulating environment for your child to grow and learn. Please don't hesitate to contact us to arrange a visit and see what we have to offer.
