Greendale Kids Preschool is a small early childhood centre at 82 Guppy Road in Greenmeadows, Napier. It takes children aged two to six, and it is licensed to open from 7.15am to 5.30pm each day, all year round. Meals are cooked on site. The centre offers the 20 Hours ECE subsidy for three and four year olds. Its learning follows Te Whāriki, with a focus on sustainability, nature, and connection with whānau and the community.
The spaces include an art room, a family play area, a quiet reading space, and natural resources for exploring. Outside there is a playground, swings, bikes and loose parts. The centre says its teachers are all fully qualified, and that children are encouraged to make decisions, set up play areas, tidy up, and manage toileting and dressing themselves. The centre also runs Greendale Kids Nursery for babies and toddlers, and King Street Kids, a home-based small-group preschool.
Enquiries can be made by phone on 06 845 1111, and families can arrange a visit.
