Preschool

Give your child a positive start to learning

For boys and girls, aged 2 to 5 years old

We provide children aged two to five years with a happy, fun, and engaging Preschool environment through a combination of stimulating curriculum and extensive enrichment opportunities with a good balance of child-initiated inquiry and structured and age-appropriate activities.

St Mark’s Preschool is a private, multicultural and co-educational Preschool. We are located in the grounds of St Mark’s School at the Basin Reserve. We provide an exemplary early childhood education for children in a vibrant, cheerful and environmentally mindful setting.

Our facilities are made up of two spaces: the Preschool and Foundation classrooms, catering for younger and older children. In addition, shared open spaces allow for flexibility and creativity, and the ability to respond to different teaching and learning styles.

Preschool marks the beginning of your child’s educational journey where they develop their love for learning. At St Mark’s Preschool, we believe that children are agents of their own learning. The children are actively engaged in our inquiry and learning programme. Children have an active voice, responsibility and a stake in the learning environment.

We pride ourselves on providing a safe, inclusive, and collaborative environment—an environment where each child’s individuality, innate curiosities, and desire to learn are nurtured.

We believe children’s success is achieved through collaboration between Preschool and whanau. We value and are committed to building positive relationships and partnerships with parents and caregivers. Whanau are valued as an important part of our community. Our aim is that together, we can support our tamariki in achieving their fullest potential.
