At Busy Bees Whakatau Street, we believe that as an early learning provider, we have an important part to play in our community and a very special opportunity to positively impact young children’s lives in their early stages of development. We celebrate whanaungatanga, connecting with our community through multicultural celebrations and creating a sense of belonging, where everyone has a place, no matter what culture they identify with.
Located in the heart of Rotorua, on Whakatau Street, we are easy to find and within a short travelling distance to Rotorua CBD. Parents love the rich sense of community at Busy Bees, and our curriculum reflects our philosophy for strong relationships. We absolutely love coming together with our tamariki, whānau and community to strengthen our relationships with one another.
Dietitian Designed Menus
Our dedicated cook and centre team is currently striving towards the Tohu Manawa Ora | Healthy Heart Award from the Heart Foundation.
From wholesome ingredients to balanced portions, every meal is thoughtfully crafted to support healthy development and foster good eating habits from an early age.
Teachers also do regular baking with the children, which provides them opportunities to engage and learn a range of food preparations skills and fine motor movements such as pouring, sifting, spooning. It is a great hands on sensory experience for children to develop independence through self-help skills, practice simple maths as they measure and count quantities.
Free Transport
We proudly operate our own Busy Bees centre van, allowing us to help support both new and existing families who require assistance with transport to and from the centre. We also utilise this awesome resource for excursions out and about in our local community, which are always a fantastic learning opportunities!
We are committed to follow the aspirations of the New Zealand National ECE Curiculum, Te Whāriki. Te Whāriki envisages kaiako in early learning settings working in partnership with parents, whānau and community to realise this vision. The expectation is that, in their early years, children will experience a curriculum that empowers them as lifelong learners.
