School in Tauranga

“This is A4 on Tauranga Boys' College's Art Block.”

“If you are looking for a kindy that is welcoming and has open arms for your children this kindy is definitely worth a look at, they have a beautiful outdoor area and great indoor space. Highly recommended!”

“Very friendly staff and my kid loves it there...recommend to others as well. Cheers :)”

“Buckle my shoe is an amazing little centre with friendly and welcoming staff. Over the past few months my daughter has grown and developed so much and the educators have really encouraged her every step of the way. They are more than willing to try accommodate for hours and days needed and have gone the extra mile for us more than a few times. This centre is great for anyone who’s a bit unsettled about transitioning into daycare. They are happy to update you throughout the day, and also send you home with a little notebook full with the days notes. Definitely recommend to all parents and caregivers!”

Taylor-Made Barbershop is a hair salon offering spray tanning, barbering, haircuts and hygiene care. Known for trusted by regulars, a relaxing experience and friendly service.

“Mellissa was great to deal with at Knockout Sportswear; friendly, professional, and made everything super easy. Delivery was fast and efficient… and best of all, I no longer have to show up to work in my holy (and not in a good way) shorts! Highly recommend Mellissa and her team at Knockout”

“It's such an awesome daycare and lovely staff. Our little boy loves Ako Learning so much. Highly recommended. ❤️”

“The whole experience was epic! Darrel and Brad are excellent instructors, very knowledgeable and all around just good dudes! Couldn’t believe how quickly I got my first flight in and loved every bit of it! Would 100% recommend learning with mount paragliding!”

“Love training at GrapplingHQ. What the boys have created is a stellar culture of excellent technique, amazing sparring and a warm and inviting environment to ask questions and learn as a group. Classes are well structured, focusing on solid technique that is clearly and succinctly explained. It's obvious the coaches are passionate about the success of each and everyone of the team. I have trained at a few places and feel very lucky that I have found this team to be a part of. If you've trained before and are keen to check it out I highly recommend it, you will not be disappointed. If you're thinking about getting into grappling (the best decision you will ever make I might add) look no further - you can not do better than these guys. Cheers boys!!”

“Absolutely love dancing with VPC. As an adult I was nervous to join a new class, especially the ballet as I had never done it before but always wanted to. I was welcomed so warmly and have felt supported and part of the team from the moment I arrived. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to give it a go for the first time or even just wanting to get back into dance.”

“Don't need to know a thing about boxing to start at Boxn Booth. Brady is professional, knows his stuff, and comes across in such a genuine way that makes you feel comfortable and welcome in any session. Highly recommend whether you're looking at upping your fitness, just trying something new, or eventually getting in the ring.”

“Just WOW! Such a cool experience. George was a great pilot, knew his stuff and handled the large chopper with skill. So nice to see our pretty city from a birds eye view. Feel very privileged to have had this experience. Would HIGHLY recommend it!”

“Wonderful physio clinic. Kendall and her team are experienced in a wide range of treatments and I have recieved excellent care.A long term plantar fascia tear has been resolved and I am walking freely again. Injuries from a fall also attended to with good results.”

“Ryan was an outstanding driving instructor for my son. He was supportive, encouraging, and always gave clear, gentle instructions that built confidence with every lesson. Ryan took care of organising all the lessons, was always prompt, and was flexible whenever our situation changed, offering alternatives that worked for us. He also managed the whole restricted licence process, and my son was even able to use his car for the test, which made everything much less stressful. I would definitely recommend Ryan’s DriverEd, especially for teenagers who might need a little extra support to feel comfortable and succeed on the road.”

“Everyone is very supportive, the classes and services are all fun and are varied so that you can develop in all areas of health, fitness and wellbeing, on top of this the atmosphere is bliss!”

“We have used the center in the past for our eldest child but unfortunately had to change it for a time. Now, we have returned, this time with our younger child as well. The center is highly flexible in accommodating our work schedule, always ready to assist, and most importantly, our son loves going there.”

“The movement project is fantastic! I am a hockey player and massage therapist with several old injuries. The sessions with Lawrence have really helped with my core strength, joint stability, endurance and flexibility. It is a great form of recovery but gives you so much more. Lawrence gives you amazing guidance and options to adjust the poses to suit your ability. He clearly has a lot of knowledge on dynamic functional movement and the anatomy. It's also great to be able to access the live zoom sessions as well as an abundance of pre-recorded videos, so you can add in extra strength or recovery sessions whenever it suits. Highly recommended!”

“Anna provided an amazing zoom-based mental skills sessions for our team. Both athletes and staff took away a lot of valuable information. We can’t wait to put it into practice and see what impact it has on our performance.”

“Martina led a private surf lesson for my daughter and I. It was an absolutely amazing experience. I am a complete beginner and the ocean can feel quite intimidating at first, but Martina made us feel calm, safe and confident from the very start. She was thoughtful and incredibly encouraging, focussing on what we were good at and building on that. She analysed our moves and always gave good advice on how to improve to be better at the next try. I would highly recommend her and South Pacific Surf.”

“Here's a short message: Kia ora, just wanted to say thanks for introducing my boys to BJJ! They are loving the challenge and benefits - improved fitness, mental toughness, and practical self-defense skills. I highly recommend giving it a try to anyone looking to push themselves and learn a new skill. Thanks again!"”

“Neil was a great teacher, always has great riding tips to help at any level. Fun to ride with. Looking forward to my next ride forever course.”

“We have only recently moved into the area and both our 2yo boy and 4yo girl attend Minnows. They are always so excited to get going for kindy in the morning's and are both thriving in their new surroundings. Nirmala and her amazing team do an incredible job keeping children and activities as close as they can to each child's age and development. We love hearing our 4yo chatting about planet's or whichever science experiment they did that day.”

“The staff at Omokoroa Preschool are simply lovely. From the moment you enter, you can sense the positive energy. My 3 year old Autistic granddaughter settled in straight away. Staff were very accommodating and gave her space to explore. She loves attending her sessions.”

“Absolutely delighted with my karate experience! The friendly teachers create a positive atmosphere, and the supportive seniors make every class enjoyable. The inclusive approach with classes for all ages and levels is a testament to the welcoming environment. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Stephanie and her team have really helped my son after getting behind at school. The personalised lessons he has with Kip McGrath are perfect. First he got assessed and then all the "gaps" in his learning are being "filled in". With regular re-assessments we see his amazing progress. This is due to the supportive one-on-one, individual nature of Kip McGrath lessons. My son ALWAYS comes out after his Kip McGrath lessons happy (even if he says he doesn't want to go sometimes!) He also no longer dreads school everyday, as he's not feeling anxious because he can keep up and participate in class with confidence. I would recommend Kip McGrath to any child that needs help. Thanks very much, Fiona”

“My son really looks forward to his weekly sessions at Numberworks. It's built his confidence in learning by using tools that he doesn't have at school and having the close support of the tutors has helped him gain confidence. I love seeing him use his learning in his day to day life.”

“Charlie listens carefully and understands my issue. She has devised a holistic plan that caters to my individual issues, needs and limitations . I really appreciate the resources available at Beyond Physio with the app which makes it easy for me to practise the rehab exercises correctly, and also with the gym providing a wider range of ways to support my rehab. Charlie’s non- judgmental style makes her really easy to talk to and her experience shows in her wisdom and approach to my treatment. Peri and Menopausal women… Charlie has a good understanding of the realities of this stage and I’ve been really impressed with my treatment and recovery progress.”

“Been training for a week in Mount Manganui JiuJitsu and I only have good words. Head coach is super welcoming from the very beginning as well as being very friendly and helpful. Team members are great, we had very good and challenging rolls and they were super friendly, it really felt like home.”
