Awhi Whanau Early Childhood Centre

All three of my children have gone to Awhi Whanau and we are so happy with this beautiful centre. They really are like the name suggests: all about awhi caring, nuturing of the whole whanau. They have been so incredibly supportive throughout the past year of lockdowns and pandemic. It is a small, almost boutique centre, so all of nga whaea the teachers know and care personally for your child. Their philosophy of Maori biculturalism and gentle love and care for children is evident in the way the tamariki treat each other with kindness and respect.

18Nov16 A Christian, bi-cultural, early childhood education center with a capacity for up to 30 children. Established and settled in beautiful grounds in its location in Otara-East Tamaki on the corner of East Tamaki Road and Hills Road. Little outward change despite the Global Financial Crisis 2007-2012 and shifting demographics in this pre-school's environment. Associated for many years with Mr Sam Chapman QSM, a charismatic individual with community initiatives to his credit together with his wife Thelma.

Awesome caring kaiako in a truly bilingual environment. Passionate about instilling Maori values and developing our tamariki to give them the best starts in life.

Beautiful natural resources, fantastic staff. Highly recommended if you are looking for a quality bilingual childcare centre.

A beautiful centre that has lovely staff. I highly recommend.
