Busy Bees Havelock North opportunities to get out in the community

At Busy Bees Havelock North, we have a cosy nursery, a separate toddler centre and an adventurous kindergarten learning environment. Each area has their own separate outdoor area providing endless opportunities to explore the natural environment - our toddler space even has their very own bike track. Your child will love the well laid out learning corners at our centre, consisting of a family play area, creative art corner as well as a quiet space for reading and reflection.

Get in touch if you would like to come in for a tour and experience the magic of our centre in person.

We value relationships with our centre whānau (family) and wider Havelock North community. We believe that these relationships are crucial to your child's development, and we incorporate them into our programme on a daily basis. An example would be our relationships with neighbouring Te Mata School and Hereworth School through our excellent transition to school programme.

Busy Bees Havelock North's qualified Early Childhood Educators is passionate about providing high-quality care and education for your child. We bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team and their special connection with our children is cherished and supported at our childcare centre in Havelock North.

We believe that through nourishing food, children are fuelled to thrive physically and mentally, whilst enjoying the benefits of coming together and connecting as a group at mealtimes. 

Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea is lovingly prepared daily by our onsite cook. Our menus and recipes are dietitian approved and have been thoughtfully designed using The Tohu Manawa Ora | Healthy Heart Award for Early Childhood Centres. Our fabulous centre cook provides food that is minimally processed, avoiding recipes that are high in added sugar, instead using fresh, real and wholesome ingredients.

Our local curriculum incorporates learning dispositions, the principles and goals of our ECE curriculum Te Whāriki, and competencies derived from Tataiako. Our innovative learning environments are abundantly resourced with stimulating educational resources which complements the delivery of our local curriculum and educational programme. Our teachers are passionate about encouraging children's creativity, supporting their emerging social interactions, and celebrating their individual successes.
