Titahi Bay Kindergarten

Welcome to Titahi Bay Kindergarten, located at 48 Herewini Street in Porirua, New Zealand. Our establishment is not just a school, but a point of interest for families in the community.

At Titahi Bay Kindergarten, we believe in taking a place-based approach to learning. This means that we focus on strengthening our connection to the land, people, and stories of this area. We are fortunate to have stunning views overlooking te Mana o Kupe ki Aotearoa (Mana Island), Te Waipounamu (South Island), and te maunga Whitireia. These are significant landmarks for Ngāti Toa Rangatira, the mana whenua of this region.

Our programme is designed to encourage exploration and curiosity. We offer hikoi ki te hāpori, which are community walks, allowing our tamariki (children) to engage with the local area and learn from their surroundings. We also maintain strong connections with our local schools, ensuring a smooth transition for our tamariki as they progress in their education.

Our dedicated kaiako (teachers) are committed to supporting tamariki in their learning journey. We encourage them to explore their interests, take risks, and see themselves as capable individuals. We believe that every child has unique talents and abilities, and we strive to nurture and develop these qualities.

We value the involvement of whānau (family) in our hāpori ako (learning community). We understand that whānau aspirations are important and we work together to create a supportive and inclusive environment. We invite whānau to participate and share in our learning community, ensuring that the needs and goals of each child are met.

At Titahi Bay Kindergarten, we are dedicated to providing a holistic and enriching educational experience for our tamariki. Join us in creating a strong foundation for lifelong learning and success.
