Awatea Kindergarten

About

High Quality Early Childhood Education

Story

The Kindergarten was opened in 1980.
The community is well serviced, with local rail and bus services and a
shopping centre and we are situated right next to the local school.
The community is a multicultural one with families with Samoan, Maori,
European and other Pacific and Asian cultures represented here.

The indoor was completely remodeled at the beginning of 2010 and is a
spacious child friendly environment. There is lots of room for a whānau
area and space for families to spend time together.
The outdoor area is challenging. The kindergarten has a site plan for a
re-developed playground and hope to have the first stage underway by the
end of 2011.
