A non-profit childcare centre on John Street in Pukekohe, run for children aged 0 to 5. It began in 1993, when a group of teachers at Pukekohe High School saw that the town needed good childcare, and they spent several years raising money and applying for grants to set it up. The centre moved to its current building in October 2007, into the old Principal's House on the high school grounds, which it occupies under a licence. It has been a charitable trust since 2008, and parents who use the centre join its society and sit on the parent committee, which helps govern the centre and raises funds. Places have grown over the years, from an original licence for 22 children to 36 places today. The centre asks for a minimum of two full days a week, each at least six and a half hours. Its teachers include permanent staff and regular relievers, and the centre works with parents and whānau to make children feel secure and welcome. Each child's contributions are valued, and the teachers aim to build a love of learning from the start.
