Tamariki – the heart of the matter
At Camberley kindergarten we provide a unique environment that reflects the cultural diverseness of our community.
We are proud to be an Enviroschool and support sustainable practices daily. Children and their whānau experience a deep sense of belonging and whānaungātangā in a spacious, natural environment. We are part of one big whānau. Whakamana mō tātou – Empowerment for all.
