Meet our Centre Manager

Kia ora
My name is Marion - I have been a Centre Manager for over 10 years. Having come from the counselling sector has made me become very aware of how important the first five years of a human’s life are. Hence my passion for ECE teaching.
It is my aim to empower each and every member of our learning community, especially our tamariki.
What makes us special
About Active Explorers Helensville
At Active Explorers Helensville, we focus on fostering creativity, sustainability, and community connection, helping children thrive through meaningful, nature-based learning. Our centre's environment encourages exploration, curiosity, and self-expression, with ample outdoor space and a strong focus on the arts, making it a perfect place for your child to grow.
We offer spacious learning environments, a beautiful outdoor area with views of the river, and daily activities designed to engage and inspire young minds. From regular excursions to local libraries and museums to integration of local culture and history, your child will experience a rich, well-rounded education.
Our centre caters to a range of age groups, from infants to preschoolers, with tailored programs that support each child’s development. We offer flexible schedules to meet the needs of busy families, ensuring that each child is supported every step of the way
