Remarkable Start Early Learning

Nestled below our majestic mountains is a very special place... a place where children get their journey off to a Remarkable Start.

We offer quality Early Childhood Education for 1- 6 Year-olds across our two centres in Queenstown, New Zealand.

Within our beautifully considered environment with its warm and welcoming community spirit, we nurture your child’s unique potential, so they’re equipped with everything they need for school and beyond.

Nature is one of our greatest teachers

Our two purpose-built centres are eco-friendly and sustainability focussed with a strong connection to the great outdoors. We promote a sense of community and care – for each other and our incredible surroundings.

Our flagship centre was opened in December 2017. With views of Coronet Peak and our namesake – The Remarkables – this really is one of the most inspiring settings for an early learning centre. When it came to designing the building, our vision was to create an environment that connects Queenstown children to the great outdoors.

Positioned to receive natural warmth and light, and to make the most of the mountain views, the centre is designed to ‘bring the outside in’. Featuring a connecting deck and large sliding glass doors, we’ve created a space that effortlessly connects the learning space inside to the natural environment outside.

Our Prepared Environment

Our commitment to nature and sustainability flows across into the materials in our prepared environments. We have sourced beautifully crafted, natural Montessori and conventional learning materials.

The learning spaces are beautifully presented with natural tones and textures creating a calm environment with the right amount of stimulation for the children. Our furniture and resources are child appropriate in size, giving the children a sense of belonging in their own space.

Sustainability Focus

As an eco-friendly centre, we integrate sustainability into our operation and education programme. The children learn about caring for nature throughout the programme including, composting and growing the raised edible gardens. To minimise our impact on the environment, we use natural materials and eco-friendly products wherever possible.
