Farm school

Amazing facility, beautiful gardens!!

A wonderful oasis for Children. Our 15month old son started here a month ago and he loves it. Under 2’s just started in September 2022.Lots of free play, with an indoor/outdoor flow. The design of the centre is an oval, with special plants growing on the roof and the rain drains down the chains into the pot plants with palms. All the rooms open up into the centre with a wooden playground and a really cool water play station. There are art easels outside too under shelter and so many toys and carts. There is a sleep room with stretcher beds. Then there is a natural mini forest/garden and another slide and mini climbing wall and rope area by the sandpit with mini hobbit houses.The rooms on the right side have a view of the creek which runs right beside it and the left side rooms have a view of the garden. Lots of parking too.Free baking for the parents in the morning. Although the food is vegetarian during the day, it is nice, with rice & chickpeas etc. Afternoon tea is usually fruit and crackers. We are doing half days and they save lunch for us as it is served at 11.30am.Lots of natural wood toys in the rooms, with a huge panda soft toy and mini kitchens, playhouses, sinks, magnetic toys, dress ups, soft play, books, building blocks, natural pinecones etc, sensory objects, mini animals, felt objects, drawing, playdough and so much more. The teachers are all lovely and experienced. They read and sing to the kids. The kids get to mix with each other (over and under 2) during the day, while supervised too.Nice toilet and changing stations. Nappies and wipes supplied by Kakapo creek.A beautiful spot in Mairangi Bay, just up from the beach. We are really enjoying it so far.The older kids go to the forest/farm in silverdale during the week to learn about nature and animals. Looking forward to that!Thank you!

Absolutely stunning picturesque place with great clean facilities and welcoming helping stuff. Thank you ❤️
