Wakari Kindergarten

Welcome to Wakari Kindergarten, located at 136 Lynn Street in Dunedin, New Zealand. As an establishment, point of interest, and school, we pride ourselves on providing a nurturing and educational environment for young children.

At Wakari Kindergarten, our dedicated and experienced teaching team is committed to fostering a love for learning, play, and exploration. We firmly believe that kindergarten is not just about education, but also about having fun. We understand that building strong relationships is essential for effective learning, which is why we strive to develop and maintain open connections with every child, their parents, and their families.

Established in 1943, Wakari Kindergarten initially operated out of the local Presbyterian Hall before moving to our purpose-built facility on Lynn Street in 1956. As a non-profit community-based organization, we are governed by an elected Board. We are proud members of New Zealand Kindergartens, a national organization that allows us to network and share expertise with other kindergartens across the country.

At Wakari Kindergarten, we offer a range of educational activities and programs designed to stimulate young minds and encourage their natural curiosity. Our qualified teachers create a safe and inclusive environment where children can thrive and develop their social, emotional, physical, and cognitive skills.

We believe in the power of play-based learning, which allows children to explore their interests and develop a love for lifelong learning. Our curriculum is designed to cater to the individual needs and interests of each child, ensuring that they are engaged and motivated to learn.

Join us at Wakari Kindergarten, where learning is not only educational but also a whole lot of fun! Contact us today to learn more about our enrollment process or to schedule a visit to our wonderful facility. We look forward to welcoming your child into our warm and supportive learning community.
