About & Description

Touch a young life - Touch a whole life We have two non-denominational Christian Early Childhood Centres, one located at Red Beach and one at Silverdale.

KingsWay Preschool has served the community since 1983. Our Silverdale site opened on 4 February 2013. The Centres are licensed for children aged 2 years to 5 years. The Red Beach Centre is licensed for a maximum of 30 children. The Silverdale Centre is licensed for a maximum of 60 children, with two separate rooms that are able to accommodate 30 children in each. We are committed to retaining a high adult/child ratio of 1:6. All our staff are qualified early childhood teachers or in training. We combine the New Zealand ECE Curriculum, Te Whāriki, with our Biblical Curriculum, giving children the benefits of a holistic foundation enabling each child to develop a love of learning. The structure of the day is organised to maximise a variety of learning experiences and to support individual styles of learning. Both our Preschool’s foster an environment of emergent learning where numeracy and literacy are inherant throughout the programme. KingsWay Community Preschools are not-for-profit community preschools and an arm of the KingsWay Trust, a registered charity. Our vision is for all children to develop a love of learning through an inquiry based approach. We have an open door policy, come in and visit our centres at any time, you will always be made to feel welcome by the teaching team.
