Ako Tahi Preschool

Ako Tahi is about learning together as one. We are more than just a preschool, we are a community hub where parents can find support and assistance for the whole family. We aim to make our preschool a relaxed and calm homely environment. 

Our Philosophy

We strongly believe that childhood should be filled with fun, happiness, and laughter. Our educational approach is one of play-based learning, in which children can spend time playing and developing learning dispositions including: exploration, imagination, experimentation, curiosity, and risk-taking. Play based learning brings a sense of freedom to children, while also allowing their confidence to grow through the many learning opportunities they encounter and deepen levels of engagement. Teachers and whanau will work collaboratively to ensure tamariki are given the space to openly take part in this learning journey and be supported through the structured programming implemented within the centre.
