Waterloo Kindergarten

Welcome to Waterloo Kindergarten, located at 99 Trafalgar Street, Waterloo, Lower Hutt, New Zealand. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we pride ourselves on creating an environment that offers a wide range of opportunities for children to engage, explore, and follow their interests. With the intentional teaching approach of our dedicated team, we ensure that children progress in their learning and development.

At Waterloo Kindergarten, we foster curiosity and discovery among our students. Our focus on early literacy experiences enriches their educational journey. The kindergarten's surroundings encourage the exploration of the natural world, with trees, busy enclosures, gardens, and a variety of bird life. We are actively involved with the Waterloo Community Gardens, promoting links within the community.

We value and celebrate the knowledge of our students, which has created an environment where they are excited about learning. Our team consists of passionate educators, including Head Teacher Nichola Gilmour, Teacher Anna Kinsman, Teacher Casey Warbrick, and Teacher Megan Paisley. We also have a dedicated Kindergarten Administrator, Kerrie Whatton.
