Te Whanau Kohanga Reo O Piopio

Nestled in the heart of Waikato, Te Whanau Kohanga Reo O Piopio stands as a vibrant beacon of love, learning, and culture. Since our humble beginnings, we've been dedicated to nurturing and educating tamariki (children) from six months to five years old, providing them with an exceptional early childhood education experience in Te Reo Maori. Stepping into our child care centre is like stepping into a warm whānau (family) embrace. Here, every day is filled with laughter, curiosity, and growth as we guide our tamariki through their formative years, helping them bloom into confident, inquisitive young minds. Our passionate kaiako (teachers) are not just educators; they're mentors, friends, and role models who share the joy of learning and the beauty of Te Reo Maori with each child they meet. We believe that every tamariki is a unique manuhiri (guest) on a journey of discovery. Our total immersion in Te Kohanga reo approach ensures that our children are immersed in the richness of te reo me ngā tikanga Māori (the language and customs of the Maori people). From waiata (songs) and karakia (prayers) to traditional games and stories, our tamariki learn more than just words - they immerse themselves in the spirit, heart, and soul of Te Ao Māori (the Māori world). At Te Whanau Kohanga Reo O Piopio, we strive to create an environment that is safe, supportive, and stimulating for our tamariki. We nurture their curiosity, encourage their creativity, and foster a sense of manaakitanga (hospitality) and respect for one another. As they grow and develop, our children build strong foundations in early childhood education, laying the groundwork for lifelong learning and success. So whether you're looking for kindergarten care or early childhood education with a difference, come join us at Te Whanau Kohanga Reo O Piopio in Waikato. Together, we'll embark on an incredible journey of discovery, growth, and love - a journey that will last a lifetime. Aroha nui (lots of love) from our whānau to yours.
