Little Kiwis Early Learning Centre is a purpose-built early learning centre at 20 Norman Spencer Drive in Manukau City Centre, South Auckland. It was founded in 2003 by Dr Daniel and Kathy Poon, and its teaching is rooted in Christian values. The centre is known for its fully Montessori preschool for children aged three to six, which the website says is one of the few programmes of its kind in the Manukau area. The Montessori unit is led by AMI-trained educators and covers practical life, sensorial work, mathematics, language and cultural education, which the website says prepares children for New Entrants and Year 1.
Parents quoted on the website praise the teachers for caring for the children, for quick replies to questions, and for keeping parents informed about what their children are doing. One says a child who has attended for many years has grown up with good Christian values. Enrolments are open, and families can contact the centre to learn more about the Montessori preschool.
