Daffodil Day

We dressed up in yellow for a coin donation to help raise money for Cancer Research. We were all things yellow - balloons, equipment, playdough and paint!

 

 

Vision and Hearing 

Vision and Hearing do regular visits to check our four year olds. They play a game that helps to check their hearing levels and their vision. This is such an important check and can pick up early signs of anything not being quite right, giving time to get it checked further.  Some of our tamariki have needed glasses following these check ups or extra hearing checks so it's a great service.

We have welcomed  24 new children in 2025! We have just a couple of spaces left for this year. School leavers next year will free up more spaces, so come and see us to secure a place for your child.

 

Library visits

We are very excited that this year, once a month from February through to November each year we will be taking part in the 'On the road' preschool programme. Whaea T.A. from the Rotorua Library will be coming in at 11am on a Wednesday each month to share a story time, musical instruments or sensory play with our tamariki. 

The library also delivers a box of books for us, to compliment our bookshelf. We are able to look at and read the books,  then they are collected after 4 weeks, and another box delivered! We get to choose the topics we would like and they pick out a few surprises too.
