Children's entertainment in Christchurch

“Kidsfirst Hawthornden is a wonder Kindergarten. It has a large outdoor area with a mix of modern and traditional play equipment for the children. The community at the kindergarten is strong, with many activities throughout the year which help bring whanau into the Centre and builds connection. My two children have both enjoyed their time at Hawthornden and I feel very happy to leave them their under the kind and capable care of the teachers. Highly recommend.”

“Has to be one of the best child care centres I've ever been to. The staff are always friendly and inviting and always happy to talk to. I never have to worry that something is wrong when picking up my child”

“This is a truly lovely place for kids to learn and grow. Teachers are kind and friendly. My kids love Kindergartens Hornby.”

“I love the whole whānau connections that are made - parents support each other to play and learn with their tamariki. We made friendships and connections that extend into the wider community and have lasted for years”

“This place has the most wonderful staff here. I would definitely recommend it. Our autistic children have been coming here for over 4 years. So many different groups are here too. They have a climbing wall and a music studio.”

“Best kindy around. Super staff and very happy kids. We have one girl there and one excited to start shortly.”

“When I moved from afternoon to morning kindergarten, the kindergarten also moved from Pleasant Point to its new home in Bridge Street. So I was a first-day pupil at this establishment. I am guessing it must have been January 1957.”

“I love this place. They're always so kind and friendly when i drop my son off in the mornings and let me know how his day has gone when I pick him up. This place is more than capable of handling his boisterous personality and i know when i leave him there he is well taken care of and safe!!!!”

“Amazing team. In store a couple weeks ago and they were such a friendly team and extremely helpful. Would recommend. :)”

“The education and care for our two children are Kindercare Bishopdale has been outstanding. They have both felt loved, secure, safe and have learned so much across the board. All teachers and staff are incredibly friendly and have always been strong on communication and creating relationships with not just the children, but us as parents as well. Nutritious hot meals are a great bonus (how lucky are the kids getting fresh fruit crumble out of the oven?!)”

“Amazing, purpose built little preschool with caring and lovely teachers. Always clean and smells of delicious fresh baking in the morning! Our daughter loves going and settled in from another preschool very well. We are always kept up to date with her learning and development in the classroom. We highly recommend Discovery Junction!”

“Fantastic kindergarten! Our boy loved his time here and our daughter is currently. Lovely teachers and environment :)”
