Who Are We?

A Bit About Us

We are a small community based centre, licensed for 32 tamariki per day. We are a mixed aged setting, catering for 2-5 year olds. At Changepoint ELC we explore our wider property area every day, where tamariki experience the awe and wonder of God's creation. We believe that strong, respectful partnerships with whānau are key to supporting the wellbeing and development of tamariki. When we work together, sharing knowledge, insights, and aspirations, we create a richer, more connected learning journey. Through nurturing each child physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally, we believe they can grow into confident, resilient individuals who feel a strong sense of belonging, identity, and purpose. By supporting the whole child, we lay the foundation for lifelong learning and wellbeing.

Our Values

Aroha 
We will show love and respect for tamariki and wh
ānau, while embracing each child’s unique God-given gifts.

​​Whanaungatanga
We will nurture a love for God, for people, and for the whenua, while celebrating each family’s unique cultural and ethnic identity.

Manaakitanga
We will teach our tamariki how to value, care for, and encourage others.

Kaitiakitanga
We will teach our tamariki how to honour, protect, and preserve God’s creation.

Tūrangawaewae
