At Waterview Early Learning Centre, we are a team of dedicated professionals that believe children learn through play. We value open, honest, reciprocal relationships with whānau and encourage them to participate in all aspects of centre life, this helps develop a sense of deep whanaungatanga (close connection).
We view tamariki holistically, and foster the Tuakana/ Teina relationships that form naturally through our fun-loving environment.
We understand and respect each child’s uniqueness and nurture their individuality. This allows them to develop at their own pace, enables us to embrace children’s cultural identity, and supports in strengthening their turangawaewae.
All interactions with children are respectful, children are listened to, and their feelings, voices and opinions are valued. We support this through our calm and relaxed atmosphere, where children are independent, able to make choices and are immersed in nature. Ultimately, this fosters their social and emotional abilities, which are the foundations for a successful transition to school and their ongoing learning journey.
To provide a healthy start for children.
To support your child’s natural aptitude.
To promote the sense of belonging.
