Discover your local kindergart­en

-

Discover Your Local Kindergart­en Week is returning this year.

Events are taking place across a number of Auckland Kindergart­en Associatio­n’s (AKA) 107 kindergart­ens during the week, so people can discover the wonderful world of learning within.

People will be able to pop along to their local kindergart­en and meet AKA’s qualified teachers and see why learning through play is so important for a child’s developmen­t.

A number of South Auckland kindergart­ens will open their doors to host a range of community days including an internatio­nal luncheon with cuisines from around the world and a Frozen- themed winter wonderland which is sure to be a hit with the children.

Visit www.aka.org.nz/discover to discover what your local kindy has planned.

AKA chief executive Tanya Harvey says, ‘‘Everyone is welcome to come along and experience their local kindergart­en first-hand, meet our brilliant teachers and see why

AKA kindergart­ens are the natural stepping-stone to primary school and how our educationa­l approach will best equip your children for a life of learning.’’

AKA kindergart­ens offer quality early childhood education that is inclusive of the diversity of the children, parents and whanau that attend.

AKA believes that children learn and develop best when they are nurtured and extended by teachers who are responsive and who share with the child an understand­ing of the world.

With hours that mirror school hours available across the AKA network, and early childhood education funding for up to 20 hours of subsidised kindergart­en education each week, there’s an option for everyone.

Give your child a great start to their learning by enrolling them at kindergart­en where they’ll be encouraged to express themselves and actively discover, experience and come to understand the world around them - while making friends and having a whole lot of fun!
