Educational organization in Christchurch

“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!”

“We moved to this kindy to be closer to school - and have been blown away by the amazing teachers and how they nurture, teach and encourage all of the children. There is something really special about this kindy. There are plenty of trees for natural shade, and there is so much to explore outside. It is currently being renovated so the indoor space is going to be new and improved when it reopens next year!”

“I enjoyed my time at this kindergarten, The teachers were super helpful and respectful, I have very fond memories of this place and it will never leave my head I learnt alot from this place, (I'm now in Year 9).”

“Has gone under new ownership, love the new owner and teaching team in the preschool room!”

“Awesome environment and great teachers. Highly recommended Kindergarten in the neighbourhood.”

“A wonderful school with passionate teachers. It is a great place to learn to how to love dance and perform well.”

“Outstanding kindy. Skilled teachers who genuinely care. They have been amazing for my three kids”

“By far the the friendliest staff we have encountered at any kindi. Our young daughter really loved coming to this place. The staff takes really good care of the kids. We had to switch to Halswell Kidsfirst because its way closer to us. But we and our daughter really enjoyed her time at this kindi while she was there.”

“Highly recommend Little Explorers Preschool. Our child loves it there. Fantastic facility, amazing outdoor space for the children to play which is what attracted us here originally. Great staff and a very community oriented small center.”

“We had our 3 children attend this kindy, it was and still is their favourite place. The staff are absolutely wonderful and they are the highlight of this kindergarten. Their care and attention to every family is so special. The teachers have incredible knowledge and experience and they form such a lovely bond with the kids. The oldschool feel of the kindy is nostalgic to our childhood with activities and toys we loved as kids too. They always have new and exciting stations setup for the kids to explore. The outside space is ideal, a large sandpit, mud kitchen and woodwork table were amongst our children’s favs. The new playground is coming along so well and we look forward to seeing the progress. Highly recommend this kindergarten!”

“My daughter had singing lessons with Gina through her primary and secondary school years and really benefitted from the experience. Gina took her through all the singing grade exams, plus theory papers. I really rate Gina highly as a music teacher. She is a kind, patient and warm person with a genuine love of music and vocal performance. She has a real knack for bringing out the best in young people because she is so encouraging and positive. Her end of year concerts are a great way for students to show their progress and these are well-attended and well-run. As a parent, I have appreciated the hard work she put in to make these a success. My daughter is currently studying for a Bachelor of Music degree, majoring in Performance Singing. She could not have got this far without all the years of quality teaching from Gina, who prepared her so well for this phase of life. As a parent, I am very grateful for everything that Gina has done for us and have no hesitation in recommending her to others.”

“Little Peppertree truly feels like a second home for our son. It offers everything you'd hope for in a preschool—small numbers, warm and welcoming spaces, a wide variety of activities, and amazing teachers who clearly love being there just as much as the children do! The transition in was smooth and easy. Each day is filled with fun and meaningful experiences. We couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”

“Very good school.. Creative and supportive teachers”
