Exploring, Nurturing - Quality Learning in a Caring Environment

Welcome to Woodlands Preschool, where young minds flourish. Inspired by our philosophy of Torotoro, Poipoi, which means exploring and nurturing, we create an enriching space where tamariki feel safe, supported, and inspired to grow.


We believe that the early years are a time of magic and wonder. Our dedicated educators provide high-quality care and education, fostering independence, confidence, and a love for learning. At Woodlands Preschool, we embrace the warmth of home-life within our centre and recognise that parents and whānau are a child's first and most important teachers. That's why we prioritise strong, respectful partnerships, working closely with families to complement their approach to childcare. Open communication and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do.


Join us at Woodlands Preschool, where exploration and nurturing pave the way for a bright future.

Woodlands Purpose - Torotoro, Poipoi - Exploring, Nurturing

At Woodlands Preschool, Torotoro Poipoi speaks to our belief in nurturing tamariki growth while encouraging them to explore with curiosity and confidence. We create a space where learning feels like an adventure and tamariki are supported through meaningful relationships, care and a deep sense of belonging. It's through these everyday moments that tamariki grow into themselves and discover the world around them.

Happy Kids

Every parent loves to see their child happy. We share in that joy and understand the profound connection between parents and their child's happiness.

It's a feeling that resonates with all of us.
