Tiaki Early Learning Centre

Tiaki is a small privately owned early learning centre, nestled on the shores of Lake Rotorua, just a stone's throw from Ōwhata marae. We cater for up to 30 children aged from 2 to 6 years.

The Tiaki house is an old family home which is set within a large, well established garden. There is a paddock at the back of the section with vegetable gardens, an orchard, and plenty of space to run, climb, and play. The outside environment is intentionally designed to encourage children to connect with nature.

Tiaki first opened in November 2008, the desire being to create a quality place for children to grow and learn. A place that gave children green, natural spaces to play in, and that connected them with both the natural world and the rich and unique culture of the community we live in. The word Tiaki means to 'care, protect and look after'. It is a name that was chosen for us by the local hapū Ngāti Te Roro o te Rangi.

One of our overarching philosophies is to 'walk softly on the earth' and this kaupapa is reflected in many aspects of the programme.

"Mō tātou te taiao ko te atawhai, mō tātou te taiao ko te oranga"
