Southern Stars Early Learning Centre borders on the edge of New Zealand's largest National Park and World Heritage Area. This remote majestic setting makes us unique in being able to provide our children with teaching experiences linked to a strong community and family spirit. Our children are social and trust those around them. They are inspired and influenced by the environment in which they live.
Southern Stars is a community owned, mixed age setting. We exist to offer high quality, inspiring teaching and learning experiences that develop, nurture and grow relationships, curiosity, and confidence for Fiordland’s tamariki and whanau.
We treasure the concept of Whanaungatanga (the importance of family) and ako (children and Kaiako/teachers learning from each other). We believe in encouraging collaborative authentic learning for children, including our community excursions, which challenge and encourage them to grow in confidence.
Our Centre acknowledges our bicultural heritage and respects our multicultural world. We’re focused on implementing sustainable practices, instilling in the children environmental lifetime learning.
