The New Zealand Playcentre Federation formed as a national organisation in 1948. For more than 60 years this largely voluntary organisation has met the changing needs of families and their communities. Today, Playcentre remains highly actively in New Zealand's early childhood education sector.

Here at Kids' Domain we are very fortunate to have a diverse group of teachers in our team which is seen as an asset within the centre . Our teaching staff are encouraged to bring their whole selves to the centre and not feel like they have to leave parts of who they are at the door. When teachers feel respected and valued for who they are as individuals, this impacts on the way they work with the children and their parents/whnau. There is a genuine desire to ensure that your children and families have a strong sense of belonging here. We are mindful that what creates a sense of belonging for one person, may not be the same for another. Kids' Domain makes it our responsibility to find out what is of greatest importance to you and your child, and to create opportunities for regular conversations to occur between the home and the centre. You will notice the many ways the children at Kids' Domain have opportunities to 'be' in relationships with others. This may be with their teachers, their peers, their siblings. To send your child to Kids' Domain for their preschool years, is to give them an experience that will nurture as well as educate, as we base our approach on the philosophical principles of Reggio Emilia. We look forward to creating a welcoming and educational relationship with you and your child. +64 9 3074949, ext. 25100 kidsdomain@adhb.govt.nz
