Gulf Harbour Preschool
About the Business
Welcome to Gulf Harbour Preschool, a truly exceptional institution located in Whangaparāoa, Alec Craig Way, 79. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we pride ourselves on providing children with a fabulous foundation as life-long learners.
At Gulf Harbour Preschool, we understand the importance of balance in a child's education. Our team ensures that children develop imaginative and creative thinking skills, while also acquiring practical skills necessary for school, such as cutting with scissors or recognizing their name. This approach prepares our preschoolers for an easy transition to school, as we take the time to instill important 'school type' routines, like taking turns and sharing at mat time. Our children possess excellent sitting and listening skills, and they are articulate and excited to share their thoughts and ideas with their peers.
But don't just take our word for it. Here's what some of our satisfied parents have to say:
A Junior School Teacher from Wentworth Primary School commends Gulf Harbour Preschool for creating imaginative and creative thinkers who possess the practical skills needed for school. They appreciate how our center prepares children for important routines, making the transition to school seamless.
Yatchi, a grateful parent, expresses their appreciation for our teachers, noting that their daughter loved every minute at Gulf Harbour Preschool. They highlight the incredible activities, beautifully decorated rooms, and the friendships fostered by our dedicated team. Yatchi believes that our preschool is helping their child see school as a fun and enjoyable place.
Heike, another thankful parent, thanks our teachers for their dedication to teaching and instilling a passion for learning in their children. They acknowledge that our teachers go above and beyond, showing their own passion and sincere interest in nurturing the little minds.
Deandre, a proud parent, praises the amazing space created by Gulf Harbour Preschool, both indoors and outdoors. They are amazed by the wonderful, colorful, bright, warm, and loving atmosphere of our school. Deandre appreciates the ample outdoor space that allows children to explore and enjoy their surroundings. They describe it as beautiful, interactive, and outright amazing.
We are honored to receive such heartfelt testimonials from parents and educators alike. At Gulf Harbour Preschool, we strive to provide an awesome environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. Join us today and experience the difference for yourself.

"Marianne and Lynda are absolutely phenomenal and certainly have your children’s best interests at heart. They are genuinely interested and invested in ensuring your children get a head start by proactively teaching the basics at a young age using a teacher-led approach. Always friendly and so welcoming, I highly recommend this beautiful pre-school for your children. High quality teachers and a high quality learning environment. 10/10! X"

"Lynda, Marianne, Ruby, Sue, Kirsty, Paris, Rachel, Tillo, Charlotte, Steve and anyone else I may have forgotten (sorry) are an amazing team! The work they do at Gulf Harbour Preschool is amazing, and we are so grateful to have found them. We moved to the area about six months ago, and had to move my (almost) four year old son from a preschool we absolutely loved, so we were nervous about him starting afresh. I visited a couple of preschools in the area, and GHP had that cosy, warm, family-friendly feel from the very start, and I couldn't imagine having sent him anywhere else in comparison. The wonderful, caring, supportive and creative team of teachers here have done such a magnificent job at helping our son transition and go from strength to strength here. The learning the kids have the opportunity to take part in is incredible. Some of the facts he comes home with blow my mind. The art and music they get involved with is awesome. The expectations for behaviour and rules that the children know they must follow set wonderful boundaries that contribute to a happy, well behaved group of children, both within the preschool, but also I feel flows onto their home life too. The GHP team have been so respectful and accommodating of my son's dietary needs (gluten free, grain free, dairy free and predominantly sugar free too), which I am particularly appreciative of, as this is a source of anxiety for me. We are so thankful to this hard-working team of amazing people, and couldn't recommend this preschool more (hence me taking the time to ramble on in this review). As soon as you walk in the door here, you are blown away by how colourful, fun and magical the spaces are. It reminds me of my old school kindy/preschool that I went to, which I have really fond memories of. We will be sending our daughter here as well when she turns three, and consider our family to be exceptionally lucky to have access to such wonderful childhood education and care here. Love your work GHP!"
"Amazing teachers, cant recommend it highly enough. Kids are very happy here."
