Lindisfarne Nursery School was established<br />
in 1987 by Tricia Cuthbert and remains part<br />
of the Cuthbert family today. We have a large<br />
open villa which offers pre-schoolers a great<br />
space for lots of fun activities, and a nursery<br />
building where the babies and toddlers can<br />
develop and explore at their own pace.<br />
Our registered teachers provide a<br />
programme of wonderful activities based on<br />
the national curriculum, Te Whariki, which<br />
encourages a love of learning, and you will<br />
receive regular updates about how your child<br />
is developing.<br />
The pre-school villa offers the children a<br />
large open space with family and role-play<br />
areas, areas for construction and art, a library<br />
full of wonderful books and puzzles, and a<br />
“classroom” area where the pre-schoolers love<br />
to ‘play schools’.<br />
The nursery house provides the babies and<br />
toddlers with the environment and resources<br />
to develop their skills in the precious first two<br />
years.<br />
Your child will have a portfolio which will<br />
reflect their interests, as well as show their<br />
learning and individuality.<br />
