We are grateful for all that Active Explorers Nelson Street has done to support our children and our family. Staff go above and beyond to care for and learn alongside all tamariki where play and learning is engaging. Our children have developed life-long attributes such as confidence, creativity, independence and to be inquisitive problem-solvers. It is such a positive community to be a part of and we are thankful for their commitment and efforts

Our experience with Active Explorers over the past 4 years has been nothing short of amazing! The teachers are incredibly caring and nurturing, creating a warm and supportive environment for both of our little ones. My children have thrived in their care, as it is such a safe and stimulating space for exploration and learning. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of preschool! Thanks AE team

All the staff at Active Explorers Nelson Street have created wonderful memories for our children. They have nurtured, inspired and created a safe space for all children to take risks in their learning and development. The teachers are committed to building relationships with the children and their families. Thank you for everything you have done for us and our family.

On behalf of myself and Robbie, I’d like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for being very accommodating and for all the help you and the rest of the teachers have extended to our wee family.

The centre and all the staff are like family to our kids. Everyone genuinely cares about the children, putting their best interests at heart. The staff are there for the families too when they need some support, which I've really appreciated. The centre is full of colour, children having fun and is an inviting place to explore, which I’m really proud of. We’d be lost without the centre and the team!

Thank you again for creating such a fantastic environment for our tamariki. Ou child absolutely loves coming to Active Explorers, and we are constantly surprised with the new skills, songs and sayings which she comes home with. We are so grateful for all of the incredible kaiako at the centre who foster our little lady’s learning, and growth into a kind, caring and helpful member of the community.
