Education, learning through play, 100% qualified teachers, and amazing play spaces - learn about the Ruahine Kindergarten Association approach that's part of all our locations.

Why Us
A young girl wearing a pink Hello Kitty hat is painting a spider web design on paper with black lines, at a table in an art classroom. She is holding a paintbrush and appears to be focused on her artwork. On the table, there are jars with paint, small easels with leaf sketches, and art supplies.

Building Friendships, Inclusive Teaching, Creativity, Sustainability.

At Ruahine Bulls Kindergarten, we encourage your tamariki to be creative, solve problems, and explore the world around them. As a proud Enviroschool, we care for nature, support each other, and stay connected to our local community.

We help your tamariki to grow and build their emotional resilience while learning. Music, dance, literacy, numeracy, science, art, and drama are all woven into our bicultural programme.

In our beautiful outdoor space, your tamariki will make friends and become confident. These skills will help them with a smooth transition to school and beyond.

It takes a village to raise a child – find yours with us. Pop in anytime — or if you'd prefer to book a visit, get in touch and let’s organise your free tour today or enrol!
