School in Silverdale

“I've been training with Ricardo at Black Knights for around 4 years now. Ricardo does an excellent job and caters to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. Ricardo does a great job of bringing good quality people into his gym making the classes both educational and enjoyable! Oss!”

“I have been going to Coast Academy for around 7 years now and it’s been great. Coast Academy is one big family. The coaches here take time with each student to make sure they know exactly what they are doing. The atmosphere here at this gym is so great as well, everyone is so kind, caring, supportive and helpful. The people who are part of this gym are so respectful and kind and willing to help if needed. I am proud to call Coast Academy second home.”

“A centre that feels like home when you walk through the door; we are always warmly greeted by Denise, Janna or Jane at the front desk. Kids are then welcomed into their room by the amazing, nurturing kaiako. The staff are passionate, highly skilled at their jobs and offer so much support to families; whether its helping with settling your child in the morning, toilet training or remembering what's important in each child's life at home. Amy makes the most delicious meals which our kids both loved and despite using Amy's exact recipes to recreate these meals at home, our daughter tells us "you need to ask Amy how to make it as good as hers!" We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found Kindercare as we don't have whanau in Auckland, but having such a special place for our kids is the next best thing. Both our kids had five years being lovingly cared for by the unique Kindercare Silverdale team - after ten years of being part of the Kindercare whanau, it is really hard to imagine saying goodbye to the centre later this year when our baby turns five. Highly recommend!”

“I will strongly recommend Kingsway Preschool Silverdale. My son spent an amazing year here. They have excellent management and system and allow parents to know everything from school in time. All teachers are patient, creative and always have smiles on their faces. Thanks for everything. :)”

“I have followed the IOAI for many years and watched the Institute develop into an all round - open minded club that throws politics out the door and lets students learn at their own pace and their own competent level no matter what style they practice in their own dojo. I have brought a few of my own students to his seminars that are packed with so much information and training ideas from some very high tier instructors who are more than willing to help out any and all visitors. Head instructor Sensei Dunken Francis is not afraid to pressure test any techniques and look at cross-training with other styles, something not often found in the dojos with old style attitudes. Highly recommended!”

“We’ve had our 3 children in the care of Fantails Silverdale since 2018, and our experience has been nothing short of wonderful. The teachers are always so warm, caring, and dedicated to the children, which makes a huge difference in their development. It’s clear they’re genuinely passionate about creating a nurturing environment. The outdoor space is fantastic! There’s plenty of room for the kids to play and explore, and it’s a great feature of the centre. I also love that they have separate rooms for different age groups, so each child gets the attention and activities suited to their stage of development. Fantails organizes regular events that keep things fresh and exciting for the kids, from themed days to celebrations, and they always look forward to these. The extra activities they offer, like playball, swimming, and school visits, are a nice touch and give the children a variety of experiences beyond the typical classroom setting. What stands out most, however, is how the management truly listens to feedback. They are always open to suggestions and seem genuinely invested in improving the centre. It’s clear that they care about the families they serve. We couldn’t be happier with the care our kids are receiving at Fantails, and we highly recommend it to any family looking for a supportive, engaging, and professional early learning centre.”

“We moved our daughter to learning tree from another centre and the quality is absolutely the best. All the staff are friendly and go the extra mile. The rooms are so inviting and warm. Thanks Learning Tree for your love and care.”

“Great shop, friendly staff always willing to help.”

“Good place to get presents. Often see nice clothes and kitchen stuff at bargain prices”

“Great culture and place to train. Ricardo breaks concepts down effectively and makes every session a fun one!”

“My kids love the EduExperts Silverdale holiday program. I can easily see what progess they are making in English and maths. I get useful feedback from their teacher and other staff which helps me understand both their strengths and weaknesses in these two areas.”

“Great session with Roy - very warm and friendly approach to his instruction and gives solid detailed explanations of concepts and maneuvers. Would highly recommend.”

“Great at place and people would recommend!”

“Great school. Friendly, modern and well-equipped”

“Just purchased a Microsoft Surface tablet and other items from the Silverdale branch. Fantastic service from all staff every time I buy from there. Especially this time! Service from Ethan Berlyn was outstanding! Not pushy, knowledgeable and sold me what I wanted, and needed based on his own personal product experience. Highly recommend Ethan as a point of contact. Thanks Ethan.”

“Vanessa at Warehouse Stationery Silverdale was awesome! Super helpful, friendly, and approachable, always happy to assist. She really made our day a bit brighter. Cheers for the top-notch service, Vanessa! You are truly an asset to the company!”

“The flowers from Old School Yard Blooms are absolutely stunning. Lou, the flourist is incredibly delightful. The color scheme and arrangement of the flowers are simply fantastic, and Lou's communication with us was impeccable. Our guests were truly amazed by the flowers from Lou, and we were completely in love with them. We highly recommend Old School Yard Blooms to anyone looking to make their day extra special. Once again, we can't thank you enough for your hard work and the exceptional quality of your work.”

“Very thankful for your great assistance and warm understanding of parents' feelings indeed. I have recommended my friend to contact to you too. Thanks again.”

“Mike and team are fantastic. Personable, interested, great advice and great gear. I salivate every time i check in as they have everything and more. Stuff I need and then stuff I want (there is a difference!). This is definitely not like a so called "surf" shop in a mall selling surf brand fashion clothing to teenagers, this is a specialised surf, foil, sail, SUP retailer. Highly recommended.”

“We really enjoyed this playground. There are things for all ages to do”

“The team at Coast Montessori are absolutely wonderful!! Their love, care and passion is truly remarkable. With separate zones focusing on different skills, I know my child is being developed in all the different learning aspects. My daughter loves it so much that it is a mission getting her to leave every day. Highly recommended!”

“Jude has a wealth of knowledge and is generous in sharing it. She is passionate and committed to Iyengar yoga through her own practice and in her teaching. She strives to enable you to be your best you, both now, in 10 years and beyond. The studio is a gem. Well equiped with ‘stuff’ you can’t imagine using, but with training you will. I guarantee you will be challenged, learn much about yourself physically and mentally and leave with a sense of peace and friendship from being a part of Jude’s yoga family.”
