The staff communicates nicely and makes us feel part of the centre. It is also kept really clean! I like the way different age kids are kept in separate areas that is suitable for their development stages.

Active Explorers Papakura is the best Kindy I’ve come across. The teachers are passionate about what they do and engage well with the kids and parents. I’ve already recommended several friends who now send their kids there too.

Matariki at Active Explorers Papakura

This Matariki has been a real special one for us here at Active Explorers Papakura, helping us embrace the importance of community and giving back. It has helped us guide our local curriculum forward as we focus on being Panekirentanga, a place that excels in excellence for our whanau and community. This Matariki also helped children guide their own learning and make sense of the world around them as they lead experiment, held discussions and questioned everything. Relationships were brought into the spotlight with old and new ones being nurtured and grown as we open our doors for all. We cannot wait to see what other opportunities lie ahead for us as we welcome in the new year.
