Meet our Centre Manager
Kia ora
I’m Andrea! I’m so excited to be joining the team as Centre Manager! Supporting children to grow into confident, capable learners has been a lifelong passion of mine.
I have a background in Psychology and am currently studying toward a master’s in educational and Developmental Psychology, which continues to inspire my work in early childhood education. I believe in nurturing a sense of belonging, kindness, and respect in every child.
Outside of the centre, I love spending time outdoors with my husband and three children, going for runs, and enjoying a good BBQ on the weekend!
What makes us special
About Active Explorers Glenfield Kea
Active Explorers Kea offers a warm, inclusive environment where personalised care and strong relationships come first. Our experienced kaiako support learning through creative projects, cultural celebrations, and a focus on sustainability. We partner closely with whānau, creating meaningful experiences that nurture confident, curious learners in a welcoming, community-focused setting.
Located near Glenfield Mall and Library, our centre is well-positioned for family convenience. Tamariki enjoy enriching visits from community helpers like librarians, firefighters, and police officers, connecting classroom learning to the world around them in a safe, vibrant neighbourhood.
We cater to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in age-appropriate environments. Infants receive gentle care, toddlers enjoy hands-on discovery, and preschoolers benefit from school-readiness activities. Each day is a balance of structure, exploration, and play that supports growth and joy in learning.
