Busy Bees Woodend

Welcome to Busy Bees Woodend, a warm and inviting institution located at 30 Main North Road in Woodend, New Zealand. At Busy Bees Woodend, we prioritize creating a sense of belonging for our tamariki (children) and whānau (families), ensuring that everyone feels right at home from the moment they walk through our doors.

Our center offers separate nursery and preschool rooms, providing nurturing and stimulating environments for children of all ages. We believe in the power of tuakana-teina interactions, where older children can guide and support younger ones, fostering a sense of community and collaboration.

One of our highlights is our recently revamped backyard play area, which is well-resourced and designed to encourage exploration and imaginative play. We understand the importance of outdoor play in a child's development and education, and we provide ample opportunities for children to engage with nature and develop their physical skills.

We strongly believe in positive partnerships with parents and open communication at all times. We value our relationships with whānau, tangata whenua, and the wider community, and we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all. We actively engage with our local community, organizing excursions and participating in local events to enhance children's learning experiences and promote their understanding of the world around them.

Our connections with Woodend School and local businesses allow us to form strong relationships and support children through the transition process. We treat our families as part of our center whānau, ensuring that every child feels a sense of belonging and security.

At Busy Bees Woodend, we are committed to following the aspirations of the New Zealand National ECE Curriculum, Te Whāriki. We believe in working in partnership with parents, whānau, and the community to empower children as lifelong learners. We recognize the significance of the first five years of a child's life and strive to provide a curriculum that prepares them for school while nurturing their curiosity and love for learning.

But don't just take our word for it. Our parents have expressed their satisfaction with our center, describing it as a home away from home, where their children are healthy, happy, and well-cared for. We pride ourselves on being a friendly and welcoming preschool, where children feel embraced and supported.

If you're considering a daycare for your child, we highly recommend Busy Bees Woodend. Come and join our amazing community of staff, parents, and children, and experience the warmth and care that sets our center apart.
