Amazing kindy, our daughter had the best time there. She loved Fire Friday and the Nature Program. The teachers are really talented and caring and truly see your child in it's character and strenghts. Thanks so much for having us. We will miss you so much!

We couldn’t be happier with Manaia kindergarten! The teachers are absolutely beautiful - so warm, caring, and nurturing. The outdoor environment is incredible, with amazing nature play, a sustainable focus, and even chickens for the children to care for. Layla loved nature program which gave her the chance to flourish and grow in so many ways. She truly loved her time at kindy, and we’re so grateful. Thank you Manaia Kindergarten!
