A continually evolving natural playspace is the focus for Karen, Jenny, Neta and administrator Sophie. They enjoy the natural outdoor environment and our children appreciate the trees and open spaces to play in.
The colourful interior of Parkway reflects the creativity of our children and their cultures.
Our Vision
(This is our "wawata" - our dream or aspiration for our kindergarten)
Our Kindergarten will be highly regarded in Wainuiomata for providing quality education that meets the needs of our diverse cultures and community.
We will strengthen links with our contributing schools and support the children and families through this transition.
We will use our community garden as a vehicle to build relationships and encourage community/family participation in the programme.
Teachers will continue to reflect on their practice in order to provide a quality education and programme for children.
Our Philosophy
Parkway Kindergarten provides an environment that:
Welcomes families and values their participation and diverse cultures.
We encourage children to be independent, develop confidence in themselves and show respect for others and the environment.
We aim to provide a safe, fun, quality learning experience.
