About Little Wonders Rolleston

At Little Wonders Rolleston, we’re all about helping tamariki grow through kindness, curiosity, and confidence. Our philosophy, guided by Kaitakitanga (looking after the world) and Manaakitanga (showing kindness), creates a warm, caring environment where your child will thrive.

Our purpose-built centre features bright and spacious indoor and outdoor areas, giving tamariki plenty of room to explore, learn, and develop. From our weekly gardening sessions to endless opportunities for creative play, we ensure that each child’s individual needs are met in a safe and supportive space.

We offer age-specific programmes for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, with tailored learning experiences and routines to support each child’s developmental journey. Whether it’s messy play for the littlest ones or preparing for school for our older children, we’re here to nurture every step of their learning.
