“Our daughter goes here, great family atmosphere, very welcoming! She loves it!”

“Absolutely the best riding school for kids. The shop itself has a great selection. Highly recommend.”

“Great show, great performers, highly recommend for a night out.”

“Love this place. Amazing for the wee ones 5/5”

“The first moment we walked in to Beststart Prestons we felt very welcomed. The teachers and staff are so genuinely caring and really take the time to get to know the children. There are plenty of engaging projects that the children love getting involved in. I have loved seeing the friendships develop between the kids. The teachers have helped so much with giving my son confidence and getting him prepared for school. The meals are fantastic and its great to know my son has had a healthy meal and maybe tried some new foods too! Storypark makes it's easy to see all the great things they are doing during the day, the friendships they make and the progress they're making too. A wonderful preschool, it makes the tough job of not being with my son while I'm working a whole lot easier knowing that he is so happy and well cared for.”

“It’s has a homely feeling and everyone is so lovely. Highly recommend to anyone. It came into my life at the right time .”

“Wonderful art classes for kids, our son has been going and loves it.”

“Approxmetly 8.43pm 29/12/25. Such wonderful service this evening from Wendy. I went to queue and she dropped what she was doing to ask me to come to the desk so she could serve me. I had a bag of kettles and a 90L Sistema storage container. She asked me how my day was and if I had a busy Xmas. She was very easy to engage with after a long day at work. She discussed about the great price of the Sistema containers and may have mentioned that, at that price you could get two! It was indeed good value and her upsell almost made me buy another one. I will discuss with my wife this evening and may come back and buy another two. Keep this wonderful wahine on, she is very motivated and an asset to your store!”

“great customer service, lovely workers. i recommend this store 101%! Dave deserves a raise. :) lovely man”

“Jake is awesome. Loving the classes he runs, thanks to him!”

“We have purchased a few pieces of equipment from Elite over the last 10yrs, with positive interactions. Would like to give a specific recognition to Paul, for his great service, support and overall professionalism. A model for others to emulate.”

“I went here for the first time last Tuesday the 13th August. I got Georgina a lovely girl that put in foils that turned out spectacularly. I was very impressed with the time she took to do this right & how she constantly checked in with me & consulted me with colours to get exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, we ran out of time for her to complete the haircut also, but she referred me to another girl that cut the hair as I requested and did a fantastic job. I hope you got to see the photos Georgina ...and a very BIG "Thank~You" to you for the wonderful service & excellent hair colour :) ..And also to the hard working team of tutors that keep this busy place running smoothly & making sure that everyone is happy :) I look forward to my return.”

“Awesome experience with NZIS Christchurch campus”

“Loved it learnt alot she was lovely and so was the ponies”

“I had the privilege on flying Electric Air with Gary, wow what an amazing experience! We flew on a beauty day out over the sea and back over the Canterbury plains, I got to fly myself which was awesome! Highly recommend Gary and the team!”

“Great teachers and a fun social group to both learn and make friends.”

“When looking for a daycare for my firstborn, Kindercare was 100% the best choice. We have been attending since 2023 and I intend to keep him there until he starts school. We felt a lot of support from all the staff, the environment is super clean and organised and I always felt very confident in leaving my baby boy in good hands. He is 3 years old now and every day he is super happy to go to Kindercare.”

“Enrolling my son in this Kindy was the best decision I’ve made for him. We moved from another centre (after visiting a few before that) and from the moment we walked in to Selwyn St Kindy we were made to feel so welcome; all staff immediately engaged with me, my son and my younger daughter too. Communication has been excellent, both in person and through the online platform, we always know what’s happening day to day. The kindy has a great large outdoor space and a beautiful and engaging indoor space. The teachers go above and beyond, embracing the strengths of families and celebrating the diverse community. What I love most is the genuine love and energy for the children, they truly put kids first and always take the time to comfort and listen to the children and their needs. They do it all, so many wonderful opportunities for the kids, they seek out interesting learning opportunities They sing with the kids, bake, use lots of te reo, actively teach about managing emotions, I really cannot fault them. It’s the kindy I wish all kids could have!”

“I recently moved from India to New Zealand two months ago. My baby started to go kindy & he’s really praised all the teacher. He’s so happy & comfortable with you. Even I can see lots of change on him. I seen every story you shared with us. I’m so happy & surprised that he’s doing so good. All of the teachers are soft spoken & very kind in nature not only with child but parents too.I am so happy to be a part of it. Thank you everyone.”

“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.”

“We have loved being a part of LBP for the last 18m, my son thrives and I love the shared spaces for all ages to interact and enjoy. I love the menu options on offer and that the kaiako enjoy working there which makes me happy knowing my son has happy educators”

“I'm so glad I stopped in with my daughter for a visit”

“Perfect in everyway, excellent fun friendly teachers and grounds, great parking spaces i would look any further for a place for your children to grow and develop”

“I would like to say a big thank you to Aditi for her wonderful customer service. I had to visit the store three days in a row because my online order was delivered in separate parts. Each time, Aditi served me kindly and patiently. When I came back to ask about replacing one of the items that looked repacked, she handled the situation very professionally. She checked with other staff and helped me resolve the issue quickly. Thank you again for the great service — I really appreciate Aditi’s help, and I will definitely come back to shop again.”

“I had an excellent experience at this store. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to be helpful. It’s rare to come across a team that is both professional and genuinely kind, and they made the visit smooth and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this store to anyone looking for great service and a positive experience.”

“Great store, well presented, loved the Smart home displays, staff were gathered around the counter, however, they did ask me if I needed help with anything which was nice.”

“Performance was amazing and fun upbeat music with powerful voices. Disappointed by the all white crowd, … how do you get other cultures to attend I wonder? Something in the marketing perhaps”
