St Peter's Anglican Preschool opened in August, 2019. It provides a multicultural, family friendly environment that has developed strong links with our community. Licensed for 44 children, we nurture children aged approximately 1.3 – 5 years (children can stay up to their 6th birthday).
We believe that each child is a gift from God and is best taught well while they are young. Our Learning program is based on Biblical teaching and the principles of Te Whāriki (New Zealand ECE curriculum) which guides us in the development of children’s cognitive, emotional, physical, intellectual, language, emotional and social needs.
