About The Salvation Army Early Childhood Education Centre Wellington
Welcome to The Salvation Army Early Childhood Education Centre Wellington, located on Normanby Street in the vibrant suburb of Newtown, New Zealand. As a small, purpose-built, community-based center, we are dedicated to providing high-quality education and care for children in a nurturing and inclusive environment.
Our team of passionate and dedicated Early Childhood teachers are committed to building strong, responsive relationships with both children (tamariki) and families (whānau). We take pride in being integrated into the Newtown community and value the connections we have with local families.
Situated within the Newtown Salvation Army center, our center is part of a community services hub and Salvation Army church. This allows us to offer wrap-around support for families, including access to a community playgroup, counseling services, a food bank, social worker support, a fruit and vegetable co-op, and more. We believe in providing comprehensive support to ensure the well-being of both children and their families.
At The Salvation Army Early Childhood Education Centre Wellington, we prioritize the health and nutrition of our children. Our wonderful center cook prepares morning tea, a nutritious cooked lunch, and afternoon tea for the children. With a high ratio of qualified and registered teachers, we offer a safe and stimulating environment where children can thrive.
We believe in the power of learning through play and follow a curriculum based on current Early Childhood research and best practices. Our focus on building strong relationships allows children to feel valued and supported as they explore their capabilities and develop a love for learning. We encourage the development of a strong sense of self, social and emotional competence, and a passion for learning.
Our center is licensed for up to 45 children from birth to 5 years old. We have a maximum of 30 children enrolled at any given time, with 8 infants and toddlers under two years old, and 20 children aged two years to school age. This ensures that each child receives personalized attention and care.
We offer flexible opening hours from 7:45am to 5:15pm, including full-day sessions and a limited number of half-day sessions. Additionally, we run the Space Parenting Program on Monday to Thursday mornings during school terms, providing a supportive space for babies and parents to connect and learn together.
As part of the wider Salvation Army center, we also offer an excellent Community Playgroup for children under 6 years old on Tuesday mornings during school terms. This is a fantastic opportunity for children to socialize and engage in play-based activities.
