Early Childhood Centre
Welcome to Flanshaw Early Childhood Centre. We are a team of kaiako working alongside children from the age of 3 years to school entry.
A little bit about us
We are a non-profit community based centre located on the grounds of Flanshaw Road School. We are licensed for 35 children per day and offer 20 hours ECE for all children over the age of 3 years.
We believe children learn best where they are in an environment where their sense of belonging is fostered through respectful relationships and we pride ourselves in providing a home away from home for all children.
We share a close relationship to Flanshaw Road School which supports our children and their whānau through their school transition.
Our Curriculum
Our approach to teaching and learning is underpinned by the New Zealand Early Childhood Curriculum, Te Whāriki. Supporting this is the importance of learning through play; where our children are provided with meaningful and intentional learning experiences to explore, create, inquire and strengthen working theories through a holistic approach to learning.

Nourish & Nurture: From Home to Centre
Bringing a touch of home to our centre! Parents are kindly asked to prepare nutritious meals and snacks for their little ones, ensuring they're fuelled for a day of fun and learning ahead.
