Welcome to Wellsford Preschool Education Centre

Our preschool environment replicates the comfort and security of home. We have a safe and supportive environment for our children offering education, adventure and friendship. Children are encouraged to experiment and practise new skills.

Wellsford Preschool recognises that our children are our future, so our dedicated team work together to support our children through play in a supervised environment. Play is what children do best and through different experiences and challenges, they learn problem solving, patience, empathy and how to cultivate their mental, emotional and physical resilience.

  • "I have always been impressed by the staff’s genuine level of care for each individual child. The children are all noticed, seen, and heard. I am very sure George will miss the attentive kindness from the staff at Wellsford Preschool, and the family/whānau feeling it provides. Thank you so much for looking after George."

Thanks heaps for all your effort and always improving and providing new and exciting things for the children to play with."
