The task of finding a day care facility that meets the needs of our son and our expectations of a child education centre is always a daunting task. However, the warm and inviting environment we walked in to on our first visit to Waiapu kids St George’s, was the first of many positives we have experienced during our time at kura. Being a new mama and my son only being 6 months old at the time, it was comforting to see how loving and caring all the kaiako were towards not only my pepi but all other tamariki at the center.
