Ngaio Playcentre borders onto the beautiful bush and tui, kereru and kākā of Huntleigh Park.
At Ngaio Playcentre, you and your children will forge friendships that last far beyond the pre-school years. Working and training alongside other parents builds unique bonds, and our children learn how to play well and adapt. Playcentre believes child-led play creates the happiest, most confident and competent learners. Our children choose from a huge variety of play areas and move on when they want to. As parent-educators, we’re trained to facilitate and extend play.
Our huge natural outdoor play space has been upgraded recently and features a river bed and water pump, huge sandpit, mud-kitchen, tree-houses and lots of climbing and hiding areas within the beautifully planted seasonal gardens and mature trees. Our modern interior has been designed to create learning spaces where tamariki can access their own resources and facilitate true child-led learning in a sound sensitive environment.
Reorua / Bi-lingual Session
Ngaio Playcentre runs one of four Reorua / Bi-lingual sessions in the Wellington area. On our Tuesday Reorua session we employ a fluent Kaiarahi Māoritanga to support our pakeke ( adults) and tamariki ( children ) to learn Te Reo Māori in an authentic, immersive and safe environment which goes beyond basic kupu and greetings. This session is designed as a catalyst for the learning to flow on into all of our sessions.
