Auckland Playcentre Association

In the vibrant heart of Auckland, nestled amidst the bustling cityscape, lies a sanctuary of learning and play - the Auckland Playcentre Association. Established with a shared vision by a group of passionate educators and parents, our centre has been nurturing the young minds of Auckland's children for over seven decades. At Auckland Playcentre Association, we firmly believe that every child is unique and capable, and it's our privilege to support their growth in an environment that fosters curiosity, creativity, and independence. Our focus is on early childhood education, providing a kindergarten experience that goes beyond the ordinary. We offer a wide variety of engaging activities designed to stimulate young minds, from the tactile joys of sand and water play, to the artistic delights of paint, clay, collage, and even cooking. But we're more than just a collection of resources; we're a community. Parents are actively involved in our sessions, working hand-in-hand with our dedicated team of educators to provide a nurturing environment where children can flourish. From the tiniest tots just beginning their journey, to those on the cusp of school, our doors are open to all children aged 0-6 years. Our approach is rooted in play-based learning, recognizing that through play, children learn best. We provide a rich tapestry of experiences for each child, allowing them to explore, discover, and make sense of the world around them at their own pace. In our care, children are not merely students, but explorers, dreamers, and creators, shaping their futures one sandcastle, one painting, one song at a time. So, whether you're looking for a kindergarten that understands the unique needs of your child, or a community where you can grow and learn alongside your little one, come join us at Auckland Playcentre Association. We can't wait to embark on this incredible journey with you and your child.
