Nga Hau E Wha Te Kohanga Reo

Nga Hau E Wha Te Kohanga Reo, nestled in the heart of Auckland, is more than just a childcare center; it's a vibrant, nurturing whānau where tamariki (children) from all walks of life come together to grow, learn, and thrive. Since our humble beginnings, we have been dedicated to providing exceptional early childhood education, encompassing Kindergarten and beyond, in an environment that cherishes the unique Māori language and cultural immersion. As you step into our kōhanga (nest), you'll be greeted by the sweet laughter of little ones, the soft hum of learners engaged in activities, and the warmth of teachers who are truly dedicated to each child’s wellbeing and success. Our teachers, handpicked for their passion and dedication, work tirelessly to ensure every tamariki feels valued and encouraged. At Nga Hau E Wha Te Kohanga Reo, we believe in the power of early childhood education to shape the future. We offer a curriculum that encourages exploration, creativity, and academic growth, all underpinned by the values of manaakitaka (caring for others), whanaungatanga (family relationships), and kotahitanga (unity). Our commitment doesn't stop at the classroom doors. We actively encourage whānau involvement, believing that strong partnerships between home and kōhanga can foster a sense of belonging and continuity for our tamariki. Whether you’re dropping off your little one in the morning or joining us for a parent-teacher hui (meeting), we welcome your presence in our whānau. In a world that's constantly evolving, it's comforting to know that at Nga Hau E Wha Te Kohanga Reo, the core values of our Māori culture remain steadfast and true. We invite you to join us on this beautiful journey of learning, growth, and connection as we nurture the next generation of courageous, compassionate, and confident leaders. Together, we will create a future where Māori language, heritage, and values are celebrated and shared by all.
