Why Us
Child jumping on an outdoor play structure, with another child standing nearby, both children smiling and having fun.

Respect, Community Connections, Enviroschool, Supportive.

At Ruahine Linton Kindergarten, caring for people, places, and our planet, is part of everyday life.

We have a unique setting, next to the Linton Army Camp, Linton School, and Ruahine Linton Early Learning. We are proud to be part of a close-knit community that values connection and shared learning. As a Green-Gold Enviroschool, your tamariki will become kaitiaki of our environment through hands-on gardening, composting, and excursions to our local Wedde Woods.

We offer strong support, especially during times of deployment, and a safe and empowering place for your whole whānau.

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!
