Sport & School & Kindergarten in Upper Hutt

“If you are looking for a place to bring the family to give them the essential martial arts and self-defence skills then look no further. I have been a member myself for almost a decade now, and my all of kids have benefitted as well. Master Callum has built an outstanding school with so much to offer - whether that is traditional hapkido, weapons, ground skills, sparring and self-defence. I have learned so much and still have so much to look forward to in my journey here. The community is so supportive. We've all gained confidence, resilience, and valuable self-defence skills. Highly recommend for both kids and adults, men and women. Come give martial arts a try, you'll be better for it.”

“We've been coming here weekly for about 7 months. The teachers are so patient , kind and engaging. We have mostly had Tegan and shes wonderful.My 3 year old has been happy and learning so much! The water is lovely and warm, definitely helps the kids enjoyment and willing to participate. I've done lessons at a public pool that was always freezing (think babies with blue lips) but Fulton is basically like swimming in a warm bath. Well worth the cost. We do lessons on a Wednesday and it's also super quiet.”

“Great support of co-curricular sport :)”

“We are more to a satisfied with the daycare. Our both children, the older son nearly 4 years and the little girl about a year old are attending the daycare daily. We love seeing laugh on our children faces when we go to pick them up. All the care givers are amazing. Their food is amazing. Clean and tidy place which is great for our children growth. My older son is learning many good things in daycare that we get surprised with. Overall, we got the best place for our kids.”

“Went here as a small child and it was great. But now it's just a good place to walk through between countdown and McParland Street.”

“Good store. I've bought every device ive ever owned from this store and I will every time. Great staff. Good location. Decent parking.”

“I would like to say again what a wonderful place our twins visit every day. There is an ecological, harmless environment both inside the classroom and outside. We are delighted with the amazing variety of materials, toys, and pictures that are so interesting for children of their age. All of these promote the curiosity and imagination of our kids. They can touch, use, and play with everything, conducting different experiments with some of the items. I am amazed by the engaging activities offered to the children, such as painting with and without a paintbrush, dressing up, science experiments, Olympic games, and pretend play. For example, today you can be a caring mother for your doll, and tomorrow you might participate in a scientific experiment. One of the wonderful traditions of the center is visiting various public places where adults work, such as libraries and ambulance stations. These excursions are extremely exciting for the children, broadening their horizons and helping them understand how life around them is organized. I especially want to highlight the teachers, Gitika and Jaimee, to whom my children are very attached! I see their caring and attentive glances directed at our kids. I feel how these specialists, with great love for each child, manage and organize all activities, using their knowledge of child psychology at this age. I feel how they create an environment and activities that help develop each child’s abilities. These kind ladies carefully monitor the development of each child and sincerely rejoice in their successes. From time to time, we receive reports about our children's lives and achievements. These include wonderful photos of our beloved children during their activities, accompanied by warm words of joy, heartfelt admiration, support, and inspiration. It is incredibly touching that these letters are addressed to the child! This is a brilliant idea! We will save all the letters and read and reread them with our children! A big thank you to our administrators, Liz and Nakita, who notify us in advance and politely remind us so that we, the parents, don’t forget things in the daily rush. Our cook, Liz, does an incredible job preparing hot, delicious, and healthy breakfasts and lunches for the children, and we are very grateful to her for this! Thank you so much for your love and care for our children. This is the best place for them, truly a gem in the heart of our city!”

“Came in a while ago and was having trouble with an item I couldn't find. Went to the counter and David was an absolute legend. Located the item in another Warehouse within seconds and went the extra mile to help out. Now everytime I'm having trouble I look for David as he's super on point everytime!”

“Great facilities. Friendly people. Am looking forward to future events held here”

Her gained confidence and love for being able to express herself through dancing and moving her body makes my mama heart so happy! Zita and Gemma show so much support, dedication, respect and kindness to all the students and their families! Thank you for always going the extra mile Zita and Gem! We love being a sort of the Dance Tech Academy family! Ange xo”

“Absolutely the best dental experience I've ever had. I had the pleasure of being looked after by Ryan and Zoe at Art of Dentistry in Upper Hutt, and they were simply fantastic. From start to finish, the communication was clear, professional, and reassuring. They made me feel completely at ease, relaxed, not nervous at all, which is rare for a dental visit! Hats off to the team for their exceptional care. I highly recommend Ryan, his calm manner and expertise made all the difference. Keep up the great work!”

“By far the best liquor store in the Hutt. Staff are absolutely lovely and are super helpful!, always asking how you are and if you’d like recommendations. Prices are consistently great, and some of the deals are perfect especially during the Christmas months. Store looks lovely too, bottles are clean, neat and tidy, it’s perfect!. Selection is also very vast which is amazing. If I could rate this store higher I would, Definitely worth your while!”

“Best school remember Goku solos even your dad that left you.”

“Go there just for a coffee, wine, beer and some RD's also light meals, enjoy a movie, seating is extremely comfortable. The facilities are clean and have a very relaxing atmosphere. Enjoy, as I have done. Cheers”

“This is my daughter’s tenth year dancing with Danzworx. Her love for dance has been nurtured by not only this wonderful school & their devotion to our children, but by a strong foundation of skill development in many genres. Highly recommended.”

“I cannot begin to say how Thankful I am that we found Kate Hey and Dare to be Dyslexic. My son came out of his last session and said 'They make me excited to learn'. That is huge for our family. Thanks so much team for your enthusiasm, for your compassion and your professionalism. I wish I had found you sooner.”

“I am thankful my son got to this swim school. He has ASD and it was challenging to find extra curricular activities that would suit his needs. I found out about this through a school teacher and met Gary the instructor. He is amazing! He has individualized swim lessons and according to every kid's way of learning. My son from being anxious and scared around water became a confident swimmer and now catching up with his classmates in their swim sessions. He learned safety and swimming skills, he also developed so much with communication by engaging with the instructor and a few other kids in the swim class. So thankful! Highly recommended to kids any age and with special needs.”

“Best Swim School in Upper Hutt. Strong focus on technique.”

“Very inclusive, friendly dance school :) Awesome location Thank you”

“A wonderful childcare provider in Silverstream Upper Hutt. The key focus at Children First is to provide a safe and friendly environment so pre- school children can learn. Children first do this very well with excellent staff who really care about their students' outcomes. All meals are provided and are healthy to provide a balanced morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea”

“Enrolling my daughter in kindergarten was an exciting and transformative experience. The teachers are highly skilled, patient, and genuinely care about each child’s development. They use a variety of engaging methods like storytelling, hands-on activities, and interactive games—to teach essential skills like reading, dancing, music, social interaction, and etiquettes. The children are encouraged to express themselves, build friendships, and learn important values like sharing and caring. Overall, this kindergarten has been a wonderful start to my daughter's educational journey. It’s clear that the teachers and staff are dedicated to making learning enjoyable while laying a solid foundation for future success.”
