We have seen confidence increase and a greater awareness of self and so too increased sense of belonging. A Nature based classroom is the best school for anyone young and old. Amazing heartfelt teachers enhance the experience even more so”

She enjoys learning and has gained valuable lessons in etiquette. Her skills and confidence have improved significantly. Highly recommend ANK for kids!”

“After debating what type of bed would be safest for our toddler daughter, we found the Montessori house bed. We were thrilled to find a local Montessori craftsman. After some struggles with getting the bed put together right, they came out and fixed what we had done to make sure it was sturdy and safe. We love the bed, the fun frame, and the safety that the floor bed provides.”

“Lea Sandford's School of Dancing is the perfect dance school. Along with an amazing teacher I've found that the atmosphere is very encouraging, being both friendly and caring. I have loved every moment, have made lots of friends and have awesome memories. I highly recommend this dance school to both beginner and advanced students. By: R.Morla :)”

“My wee girls, then aged 4 and 6 were dancers at Bev's dance school, and were taught by the beautiful Alyssa and Amanda. I was very impressed by their teachings, at how patient they both were with the wee ones as they can be distracted very easily. The cost is reasonable and affordable. My girls loved the experience they got out of it and grew more confidence very quickly. Thank you Bev and team for all you gave to us and all the other dancers that have the pleasure of your teachings. Rowena Matthews”

“I can’t speak highly enough of Shining Stars . It has been an absolute blessing for our whānau. The ECC teachers go above and beyond for our tamariki, showing incredible patience, compassion, and dedication to teaching them so much more than I ever expected. They nurture not just learning but also confidence, curiosity, and kindness. I love how they celebrate every child’s uniqueness and encourage them every step of the way. The themed days like Wheels Day are always a hit with the kids, and it’s clear the teachers put a lot of thought and care into creating fun, educational experiences. From hatching chickens to learning how make use of eggs , gardening, baking, cooking ,the hands-on learning is just beautiful to witness. My little ones are always coming home with new knowledge and stories to share. It gives me peace of mind knowing they’re in such a safe, caring, and inspiring environment. I currently have both my youngest enrolled, and I honestly feel so lucky to have found Shining Stars when I did. Each morning drop-off comes with a little sadness, knowing we’re one day closer to saying goodbye when they move on to primary school. A special thank you to Mandy and Liz who always provide thoughtful updates and feedback about what the kids are learning and how we can keep it going at home. I’m truly grateful to all the amazing ladies for everything they do. I see you,every single one of you .Shining Stars is exactly that – a shining star in our community.”
