Koru Kids Early Learning Centre is an early learning and childcare centre at 30 Kenderdine Road, Papatoetoe, Auckland, for children aged 0 to 5. It follows New Zealand's Te Whāriki curriculum, with a local curriculum shaped by the Papatoetoe community, and a play-based approach in which children learn through their relationships with people, places and things. The centre celebrates the culture of the Papatoetoe community, and all tamariki are welcome. Infants, toddlers and young children have the time and space to explore, make choices and learn through play.
The kaiako (teachers) focus on strong, warm relationships with children and whānau, and see children as capable and confident learners.
