Shalom Kindergarten

About

We are a sessional kindergarten with flexible hours for children aged 2-5 years. We love to learn, we love to have fun.

Story

Shalom was established in 1984 as a community based Centre and is a department of City Church Tauranga. It has developed into a Kindergarten with flexible hours serving families from the greater Tauranga area including Papamoa, Pyes Pa and Kaimais.



95% of our staff are trained and work as a cohesive team who love children and endeavour to encourage a culture of knowledge with a wide variety of experiences in a well resourced Centre. They value and encourage a balance of child and adult initiated learning with lots of choices.



Learning is lots of fun at Shalom where children enjoy positive social interactions with adults and children, turn taking, loving boundaries, respect for themselves and others, trying new activities in our large natural outdoor setting and spacious purpose built inside areas.



We encourage Parent involvement and love it when parents and whanau come in to share their talents with the children, when our Fathers night is one of the highlights of our year, when Mums come in to make Hot Cross Buns with the children, when we pile on a bus and visit new places, when we can support the family and not just your child.
