Busy Bees Ormiston Road

Welcome to our centre, where inclusion for all tamariki is at the heart of what we do. Our passionate and welcoming team is dedicated to creating fun and engaging environments where our tamariki thrive. We believe in building strong relationships not only with our tamariki but also with their parents, fostering open communication and collaboration. Cultural celebrations are an integral part of our centre, honouring diversity and promoting cultural understanding. By embracing culture in our daily practices, children are inspired to explore their own heritage and appreciate other cultures. Fostering a strong sense of belonging for our tamariki, their parents, and our kaiako, feel genuinely valued and supported within our nurturing environment. Through joyful experiences and learning, we ignite a love for learning in every child.

We take pride in providing five nurturing rooms specifically designed to support the growth and development of our tamariki: Honey pots and Beehives (0-2 years), Kowhai (2 years), Kauri (3 years) and Pohutukawa (4 years).

Van Service

We proudly operate our own Busy Bees centre van, allowing us to help support new and existing families who require transport to and from the centre. We also utilise this awesome resource for excursions out and about in our local community!

School readiness programme - Our purposefully designed Transition to School Programme equips children with the essential knowledge and skills they need for this next step, allowing them to make a seamless and successful move to primary. The main areas that we focus on are self-help and regulation skills, numeracy and literacy, name recognition and fine/ gross motor development. We work to make some aspects of school more familiar and practice the values seen within our school communities.
