Welcome Bay Kindergarten

Nestled in the heart of Bay of Plenty, Welcome Bay Kindergarten has been a cherished pillar of our community for many years, offering high-quality child care and education services to families across the region. Our passion lies in fostering a love for learning among young minds, providing an environment that nurtures curiosity and encourages exploration. At Welcome Bay Kindergarten, we believe in the power of early childhood education and strive to provide the best possible start for every child who walks through our doors. We are proud to be an EnviroKindergarten, integrating nature-oriented play areas into our daily routines. The children learn and grow surrounded by the beauty of our local environment, fostering a deep appreciation for nature that stays with them throughout their lives. We understand the importance of providing flexible care options, offering 30 hours ECE free per week (conditions apply). This gives families the opportunity to tailor their child's learning journey to suit their unique needs and schedules. Moreover, we extend our services during school holidays through our holiday programme, ensuring that your little ones are always engaged in fun, educational activities. Our dedicated team of educators is committed to creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere where every child feels valued and respected. We work closely with each family to understand their individual needs, ensuring that our programmes are tailored to meet the unique needs of each child. Our goal is to help your child grow into confident, curious, and compassionate individuals who are well-prepared for school and beyond. So, whether you're looking for a caring and nurturing environment for your 2-year-old or seeking an engaging and educational experience for your school-aged child during the holidays, Welcome Bay Kindergarten is here to support you every step of the way. Come join our family and let us help shape the future of your child in a fun, loving, and educational environment.
