WELCOME TO OUR PRESCHOOL - IT’S GREAT TO HAVE YOU HERE!

NURTURING LEARNING THROUGH PLAY
We provide a secure and welcoming environment where children can explore a wide range of hands-on activities—like painting, play dough, puzzles, blocks, cooking, and family play. Our spaces are designed to spark creativity and curiosity, while nurturing essential skills in problem-solving, maths, science, music, drama, language, and social development. Every child is encouraged to follow their interests and grow at their own pace.
❋
AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS
At Ashburton Baptist Preschool, authentic relationships are at the heart of what we do. Our caring staff engage deeply with each child, creating a sense of trust, belonging, and connection. These relationships extend to families too — we build genuine partnerships with whānau, always placing your child at the centre.
❋
CHRISTIAN VALUES & COMMUNITY SUPPORT
We offer more than early childhood education — we provide a supportive Christian environment for the whole family. In times of stress or need, we’re here to help with practical support like meals, clothing, and transport, walking alongside you with care and compassion.
