Tamaki Playcentres Association

Nestled in the heart of Auckland, Tamaki Playcentres Association stands as a beacon of early childhood education, where the magic of learning meets the warmth of community. Since our founding [insert founding date here], we've been a unique Parent Co-operative, fostering an environment that nurtures curiosity and growth in every child who steps through our doors. Our approach to child care and education is rooted in the belief that children learn best when they are actively engaged. That's why our Kindergarten program emphasizes 'Learning Through Play', allowing each child to explore, discover, and make sense of the world at their own pace. Our Mixed Ages Sessions create a vibrant, dynamic environment where older children can guide, inspire, and share their knowledge with younger ones, fostering an atmosphere of camaraderie and mutual respect. At Tamaki Playcentres Association, we understand that every child is unique, with their own strengths, interests, and needs. So, we tailor our early childhood education to suit each individual, ensuring a personalized learning journey that encourages independence, resilience, and self-confidence. Our SPACE Program (Supporting Play and Curiosity in Education) further enriches this journey, providing children with the tools they need to explore their interests and develop a lifelong love for learning. But we're not just a child care centre; we're a family. We believe that strong partnerships between parents, children, and educators are crucial to a child's development. That's why we actively encourage Family Involvement. Whether it's volunteering in the classroom, sharing your skills during our 'Parent Workshops', or simply being an active participant in your child's learning journey, we welcome and value your involvement every step of the way. So, if you're looking for a warm, supportive, and dynamic environment where your child can grow, learn, and thrive, look no further than Tamaki Playcentres Association. Join us on this incredible journey, where each day brings new discoveries, friendships, and memories that will last a lifetime. Welcome to our family!
