What a fantastic centre! I could not recommend New Shoots Sandhurst more. The friendly, kind, caring and energetic team make such a warm and inviting place for our kids to learn and enjoy themselves. The entire team are super accommodating and adaptable! The large outdoor space is great for the kids to explore and get grubby everyday, we love it!

New Shoots welcomed my son into their centre after our move to Papamoa at the end of last year, and he loves it. Currently in Taniwha, he loves his teachers, talking about them all the time, and has built solid relationships with them as well as his peers. My daughter will also be joining New Shoots this year, and I feel at ease that she will be well cared for and thrive just like him. I also love that the outdoor area is one big space so my daughter and son will be able to see each other during the day 😌. Shout out to the admin team, too, as everything is organised and well communicated.

My son has been in New Shoots Sandhurst  for almost 3 years. From Pipi as a baby, now in Taniwha as a young man :) His brother will soon be joining him there to start his journey. I can attest to the great management of Meg and the devotion of all the teachers. Even though we have moved away, we won’t move him out of the centre because he loves it sooo much. Thanks team!
