About Waiatarua Playcentre
Welcome to Waiatarua Playcentre, located in the beautiful surroundings of Waitakere, West Coast Road, 911. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we offer a unique and enriching experience for both children and parents.
At Waiatarua Playcentre, our philosophy revolves around child-initiated, adult-supported play. We firmly believe that parents are the most important educators for their children, and we strive to support them in this role. As a co-operatively organized institution, we provide free adult education and have the support of local Association and Federation level officers. Additionally, we are government funded and meet all Education Review Office requirements.
With a rich history spanning 60 years, Playcentre is a one-of-a-kind New Zealand organization that benefits the entire family. Our focus is on learning together and placing value on culture and childhood experiences. We encourage parents to regularly attend two or more sessions per week, where they can actively participate in their child's play and learning while helping them settle into the centre.
Nestled in a serene bush and tranquil environment, our playcentre offers a peaceful and natural setting for children to explore and grow. As a group of enthusiastic parents, we share the responsibility of early education, creating a supportive and collaborative atmosphere. Through engaging activities, we provide experiences that may not be readily available at home, fostering relationships among peers and parents. Many lifelong friendships have blossomed from the time shared at our Playcentre.
In addition to our regular sessions, we also offer the SPACE program, a year-long program for parents and babies. This program includes play, music, reading, and discussions on topics related to babies' development. We invite guest speakers to share their expertise in areas such as baby massage, sleep, and water safety. Crafts and activities are also included, allowing babies to learn and grow through play. A donation of $3 is appreciated to help cover some of the costs.
There are numerous benefits to attending the SPACE program for both parents and babies. It is a wonderful opportunity to bond, learn, and connect with other families. To become a member, we offer an annual subscription of $20.00 per household.
Waiatarua itself is a special place situated in the heart of the Waitakere Ranges Heritage Area. With its regionally significant landscapes and unique character, it boasts a distinctive community spread along the ridgelines of the Waitakere Ranges. Some homes even reach heights of over 400 meters above sea level, surpassing the Auckland Sky Tower.
For further information, please feel free to contact us during our session times. Join us at Waiatarua Playcentre and embark on a journey of discovery, growth, and lifelong friendships.
