This kindergarten joined Kidsfirst when the Central Otago Kindergarten Association became part of our Association.
Spreading the good word of kindergarten often means getting creative, like this Kidsfirst Hāwea float from years gone by.
We’re still digging through the cupboards and opening old boxes, talking to current and previous teachers and piecing together the story of our kindergarten. It’s not always easy to remember everything, or to find that photo album from years ago – but we’re looking, and loving what we’re finding.
Visit this page again soon and you’ll see a whole lot more about the road that’s brought us to where we are today.
And if you have anything you think we’d like to see, please send it to us.
Kidsfirst Hāwea’s big backyard reflects their local area, complete with native trees and bushes.
At one of the kindergarten’s Matariki celebrations, huhu grubs were served… but weren’t popular with everyone!
