Building and Licencing Update - January 2019 We hope that everyone had a fantastic Christmas and New Years holiday. We are back in the swing of things now and we are excited about the licensing visit coming up on January 11th. We are ready for the Ministry and we look forward to in the coming weeks get approval to extend our hours from 7am to 6pm and to also have the wonderful babies, who have been patiently waiting for us to join our growing centre. Look out for the information about our grand opening coming soon!

Building Extension - Early November 2018We have had a extremely busy month, with all the little bits of our extension finally coming together. With the council inspection fast approaching we have been rushing to have all the final touches put on the beautiful new area.
We now have all the units and the plumbing has been completed. We are working on the power etc and this shou.d be finished in the next couple of days. We also had a special delivery of all our furniture and equipment on what can only be described as a 'HUGE' truck all the way from Nelson. We are slowly getting there and if you know anyone who is interested in coming to have a look at the centre and/or enrolling their child (under 2's spaces available) they can contact me or the staff on (09) 832 4740 or amy@pineapplesearlylearning.co.nz |

Building Update - OctOur new extension is progressing nicely and the vinyl has been laid and is now ready for the painting to start this week.
Our lovely builders have been back this week and have completed the back steps in the under 2 area for us. We had a very busy Labour weekend as filled the sandpit up with new sand, ready for our licensing visit in the coming weeks. We have also progressed nicely with the old playground area, it is now lower and within regulations. It has also been made ready for the delivery of the bark next week. Hope you like all the progress that is happening and we look forward to updating you next month. |
Welcome to Pineapples Early Learning Centre
Nau mai ko Pineapples Early Learning Centre
Pineapples Early Learning Centre (previously Kids Express Kindy) was established in 2003. In June 2018 Amy and her family purchased the centre, with the continued desire to create a family orientated centre with the wonderful feel that Yvonne & Marjan and their team worked so hard to create over the 15 years that they were here. We continue to strive everyday to meet the unique needs of the community and to offer high quality educational experiences for 2-5 year olds (soon to include under 2's) in a caring and fun environment. We are proud that many of our staff from Kids Express that are still with us and we are still very proud that we are consistently recommended by schools, whānau and our community.
Over this time we have developed an outstanding reputation for developing children’s interests in learning and establishing a solid foundation in learning enquiry, literacy and numeracy. Please check out our 4 year ERO report.
At Pineapples Early Learning we provide over and above the required child / teacher ratios. The staff are the strength of our centre and we are a unique close working and supportive team, that are highly experienced and qualified.
We offer a mix of sessional and day care options with children bringing their own food for meal breaks and developing the social and independence skills to prepare them for school life. Come in anytime and visit us. Email or call, we look forward to meeting you and your child.
