ABC Rotorua Central

ABC Rotorua Central has an amazing natural outdoor environment. It's designed to encourage children to use their motor skills and give them opportunities to explore nature, grow flowers and vegetables, search for insects and bugs, and learn to care and respect animals.

Our infant and toddler area has a wonderful calm and homely feel, where children are encouraged to develop and meet their milestones at their own pace.  Our toddlers are also given the opportunity to explore the natural environment and Montessori activities especially designed for their age and development level.

Our over 2’s area is a wonderful large space which incorporates family play, natural resources, art and craft, music, construction and we also have a Montessori based room.  Children are empowered to make their own choices.  We encourage children to respect the environment themselves and others.  We also encourage Takeina Teina, younger children learning from older children.  We look at the holistic child and develop a programme that encourages the development of physical, emotional, intellectual and social skills.   We encourage family/whanau and community participation.
