Te Manaaki Educational Pre School Trust

Nestled in the heart of Bay of Plenty lies Te Manaaki Educational Pre School Trust, a haven for young minds brimming with curiosity and creativity. Established with a vision to nurture, educate, and care for children from the tender age of three months to those preparing for school, our journey began years ago with an unwavering commitment to early childhood education. Walk through our doors, and you'll be greeted by a symphony of laughter, joy, and learning. Our dedicated team of teachers - warm, patient, and experienced - work tirelessly to foster an environment that stimulates growth and development, both emotionally and intellectually. From the tiniest babies in our care to energetic toddlers and curious school-bound children, each one is treated as a unique individual, with their own pace of learning and interests. We believe in the power of play, understanding that it's through exploration and experimentation that children learn best. Our spacious, vibrant classrooms are filled with age-appropriate toys, books, and activities designed to engage and challenge. Outdoors, there's a world to discover, from our lush green playing fields to our carefully designed nature areas, encouraging physical activity and a deep connection with the natural world. But we don't just stop at academics. We recognize the importance of social-emotional learning, instilling in our children essential life skills such as empathy, resilience, and self-regulation. Through our nurturing, inclusive environment, we encourage friendships, cooperation, and respect for others. We're proud to offer the 20 hours free education for children over three years old, making quality early childhood education accessible to more families in our community. We understand that every family has unique needs, and we strive to be flexible and supportive, working closely with parents to ensure each child receives the best possible care. Te Manaaki Educational Pre School Trust is not just a childcare center; it's a home away from home, a place where children are cherished, loved, and encouraged to grow into confident, capable individuals ready to take on the world.
