Te Whare Rama Early Learning Centre Edinburgh St

Welcome to Te Whare Rama Early Learning Centre Edinburgh St, located in the beautiful city of Christchurch, New Zealand. Our institution is a point of interest and a school that provides a nurturing and stimulating environment for children aged 2-6 years.

At Te Whare Rama, we believe in the importance of outdoor exploration, leadership opportunities, and a sense of belonging. Our spacious playground is a haven for children to explore and play, with established trees providing shade and a natural setting. The indoor/outdoor flow allows children to seamlessly transition between the indoor and outdoor environments, encouraging a connection with nature.

One of our unique features is our Pā area, dedicated to outdoor exploration and learning. Here, children have the opportunity to engage in meaningful activities such as planting and harvesting in our vegetable gardens. This hands-on experience not only teaches them about the environment but also fosters a sense of responsibility and connection to the natural world.

Te ao Māori, the Māori world, is an integral part of our programme. We embrace te reo Māori (Māori language) and ngā tikanga Māori (Māori customs and traditions) in our daily activities, ensuring that our children develop an appreciation and understanding of Māori culture.

We understand the importance of creating a sense of belonging for each child in our care. We provide meaningful opportunities for leadership and decision-making, empowering our children to become confident and independent individuals. Additionally, we work closely with our feeder schools to support a smooth transition for our children, ensuring continuity in their educational journey.

We welcome all children and their families, and we are committed to providing support for parents of children with diverse needs. We offer regular parent evenings, whānau events, and 20 hours free education, among other services, to ensure that both children and their families feel supported and valued.

Te Whare Rama Early Learning Centre Edinburgh St is a hidden gem in Christchurch, offering a unique and enriching educational experience for your child. Come and join our community, where outdoor exploration, leadership opportunities, and a sense of belonging are at the heart of everything we do.
