Institute in Rolleston

“The staff are amazing settling in my toddler. You can tell they are actually passionate about their job and care.”

“We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Active Explorers Rolleston. Our son started knowing very little English and was quite shy, but with the support and care from the amazing team – especially in the Pūrerehua Room – he’s grown so much in confidence. He’s made great friends, learned to communicate in English, and has felt truly included and valued every step of the way. The teachers and staff are kind, patient, and genuinely care about the kids and their family. We’re so grateful to every staff member for creating such a warm and supportive environment. Thank you for all you’ve done for kid – we’ll always remember this special time!”

“I highly recommend Little Wonders Rolleston! Our daughter attended there for nearly three years and absolutely loved it. The staff are amazing, so friendly and engaging. I loved knowing that my daughter was always in good hands, having fun and learning at the same time. She also really enjoyed the nutritious and yummy meals.”

“Due to moving, our son H has been to 5 childcare centres over 4 years in both Australia and New Zealand. Ako is our favourite. The owner Rachael and the kindy room teachers have been so accomodating, nurturing, patient and welcoming towards Hunter during his transition to NZ when things were quite overwhelming in his home life with the move and constant changes. We have a lot of experience to compare Ako to having toured at least 30 centres and having attended 5 previously and we feel so lucky that we landed here at Ako. We feel so safe and content leaving our son there and he has really blossomed during his time at Ako. We will be sad to say goodbye in January when our school journey begins. Thanks to the team for being such a great support for H. We appreciate you all more than you know!”

“Fantastic school with amazing staff!”

“Great place to meet your "village" and find mummy friends while you learn to parent together and your child can make friends while learning together too. It's not a childcare where you drop off but is just as valuable”

“This is a great school, I go to this school”

“I recently placed a phone order with Domino’s, and I wanted to recognize Shane for her exceptional customer service. She was professional, patient, and very knowledgeable. I had quite a few questions, and she answered each one thoroughly and calmly. Shane made the entire ordering process smooth and enjoyable, and I truly felt like a valued customer. It's rare to find such a high level of service these days, and I really appreciate the positive experience she provided. Thank you!”

“Excellent teachers that really care about their students. Education here is 10/10. Unfortunately there are a few locals who consistently bad mouth this school even though they’ve never had a student attend here. Check out this school for yourself and form your own opinion, we wouldn’t choose any other school in Christchurch.”

“Our first takeaway order from Pizza Paradise, and it definitely won't be our last! Easy ordering online, and pizzas were ready in just over 10 minutes. Perfectly cooked, plenty of toppings, and delicious flavour.”

The staff are absolutely wonderful and caring towards my current son who attends my daughter graduated last year and my youngest will be starting in July at only 6months old.

“My daughter is very happy with school and her teacher, if she's happy, so am I.”

“We couldn’t be more grateful for this daycare. The teachers are truly outstanding — warm, caring, and consistently going above and beyond for the children. Our kids feel safe, included, and genuinely cared for every single day. The Christmas party was just one example of the thought, effort, and love they put into everything they do. We feel so lucky to have our children here and appreciate this incredible team more than words can say.”

“This is the best daycare ever! The staff is incredibly professional, and the administrator, Lisa, is always flexible and kind. I should also mention the kindness of the toddler room teachers. I feel very comfortable sending my son, Theon to daycare.”

“My son loves Stems FROM HOME. He loves getting out and about in the community with his amazing educator and wee friends.”
