About Havelock North Central Kindergarten
Havelock North Central Kindergarten is a welcoming and beautiful institution located in the heart of Havelock North village in New Zealand. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we prioritize the well-being and development of our tamariki (children). Our dedicated team of fully trained and experienced teachers, known as kaiako, work alongside the children to provide unique learning experiences tailored to their individual needs, strengths, and interests.
Visitors often comment on the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere at our kindergarten, which we believe is a result of the strong synergy among our team and our commitment to providing the best educational outcomes and spaces for tamariki. We highly value whānau (family) and foster strong connections and interactions with every family that attends our kindergarten. You are an integral part of our kindergarten whānau.
Creating an environment conducive to the development, learning, and growth of tamariki is crucial. We invite everyone to come and witness the amazing spaces we have designed for this purpose. Our approach is guided by the Enviroschools lens, promoting sustainability, diversity, cultural values, safety, and exploration. Our kindergarten is a place where tamariki can truly discover who they are and their capabilities.
Here, tamariki are supported to become confident and independent learners who can make valuable contributions to the world. We work with the unique strengths of each child, nurturing and developing them throughout their kindergarten journey, and preparing them for a smooth transition to school. We maintain close ties with local primary schools and collaborate with teachers and students there as well.
Feel free to visit us anytime; you will always be welcome. At Havelock North Central Kindergarten, our vision is to be leaders in learning, providing authentic experiences that empower tamariki to be the best version of themselves. We aspire for our tamariki to be successful learners who reach their full potential. Our curriculum is supported by manaakitanga (hospitality, kindness, generosity, and support) and whanaungatanga (relationship, kinship, and a sense of family connection), as well as the strengths and passions of tamariki, teachers, family, and the community. We value what everyone brings to our kindergarten.
We are a unique and respected institution that cherishes our past, present, and future. Every individual here has a place and their ideas are valued and acknowledged. We encourage creativity, self-expression, and mindful interactions that foster emotional well-being. Safety is paramount, and we ensure that every child feels cared for and nurtured.
Additionally, we offer up to 30 hours of free early childhood education when you attest your 20 free hours. Terms and conditions apply. Our teachers hold qualifications such as a Bachelor of Teaching (ECE) and a Diploma of Teaching (ECE).
