Dudley Creek Preschool Ltd

Kia ora and welcome to Dudley Creek Preschool in Mairehau.

The aim of our preschool is to provide a safe and comfortable environment, where your children can feel at home. Our small centre, licensed for only twenty-five children, reflects our philosophy of meeting the needs of all individual children. Dudley Creeks small size allows teachers to establish strong relationships with our children, creating a relaxed atmosphere where each child can develop to their full potential in a warm, caring environment.

We believe that a strong and supportive bond between our preschool, your child and your family is essential to assist in the learning and social development of each child.

At Dudley Creek Preschool

We believe every child needs lots of time to think, talk and play. We believe play is learning and that play empowers children and creates the passion that drives learning. Play also provides the basis for discovery; questioning, theorising, co-operation, social and emotional interaction, which are necessary for growth and good self-esteem.

Parent Involvement

We acknowledge that families and whanau know their children best and are respected for their personal beleifs and cultures.

We encourage you to spend time in the preschool, get to know the teachers and other children. We believe that the centre environment has to be inviting, supporting whanau involvement, which enhances children's learning and development.

By working together we can help your child to develop to their full potential.
