Busy Bees Lake Terrace

Welcome to Busy Bees Lake Terrace, located in Christchurch, New Zealand. At Busy Bees, we believe that every child is unique and special, and we prioritize their education and care. We understand that choosing the right center for your child is a big decision, and we would be delighted to be a part of your child's learning journey. Feel free to call or visit us anytime.

At Busy Bees Lake Terrace, our tamariki (children) and whānau (families) feel a strong sense of belonging. We strive to create a comfortable and welcoming environment, and our teachers, who live locally, contribute to our strong sense of community.

In addition to our regular curriculum, we offer the Kaitiaki Kids program, which includes weekly excursions to local parks, red zones, wetlands, and other community areas. We also have a before school program and collaborate with local primary schools to ensure a smooth transition for our children. We even host transition to school evenings with the involvement of primary school teachers and principals.

Our center provides spacious indoor and outdoor areas that are tailored to each age and stage of learning and development. We encourage tuakana-teina interactions, where older and younger children come together to share teaching moments.

We are committed to following the New Zealand National ECE Curriculum, Te Whāriki, which emphasizes the partnership between kaiako (teachers), parents, whānau, and the community. Our goal is to empower children as lifelong learners, starting from their early exploration of the world around them to their preparation for school.

The first five years of a child's life are incredibly significant and influential. We understand that as a parent, you have played a crucial role during this time, and now, we are here to continue supporting your child's growth and development.

Outdoor play is an essential part of a child's development and education. It encourages physical activity, creativity, and social interaction. We prioritize outdoor play and provide a safe and stimulating environment for children to explore and learn.

Our staff is highly involved with the children, dancing, laughing, and providing cuddles. They are supportive during transitions between rooms and toilet learning. We are proud to be a part of your extended family, and we look forward to welcoming another one of your children soon, with a sibling discount!

Since attending Busy Bees, many parents have noticed an increase in their child's confidence and abilities. Our teachers are dedicated and passionate, and they teach valuable lessons to our children on a daily basis.

We have received positive feedback from parents regarding the teaching and care their children have received in both the Preschool and Kindy rooms. Even during the transition into the Nursery, our teachers have been friendly and caring towards the children. Parents can rest assured that their children are safe and well cared for at Busy Bees Lake Terrace.

Our teachers are amazing, caring, and thoughtful. They create a comfortable environment where children feel at ease. Hand-offs between parents and teachers are made easy, ensuring a smooth transition for the children.

At Busy Bees Lake Terrace, we are dedicated to providing exceptional education and care for your child. We value their uniqueness and strive to create a sense of belonging for both tamariki and whānau. Come and join our Busy Bees family today!
