Harpreet Kanwal Centre Manager (Small)

Kia ora

I'm Harpreet. As a Centre Manager who immigrated 23 years ago to New Zealand, I bring a deep passion for early childhood education and a firm belief that the early years lay the most critical foundation for a child’s lifelong learning and well-being.

With a commitment to creating nurturing, inclusive, and stimulating environments, I focus on supporting children under five to grow with confidence, curiosity, and resilience. My journey into New Zealand’s diverse ECE landscape has enriched my understanding of different cultures and educational approaches, allowing me to lead with empathy, vision, and a strong emphasis on collaborative learning for both children and educators.

Our Centre
Open Close

At Lollipops Millennium, we focus on creating a developmentally enriched environment that supports each child’s unique learning journey. By integrating sustainable practices and a culturally inclusive curriculum, we help children develop a sense of responsibility, creativity, and respect for diversity.

Our purpose-built centre features eco-friendly outdoor spaces, veggie gardens, and areas designed for both quiet moments and active play. We offer a safe, inviting environment where children engage with nature and enjoy hands-on experiences.

We provide tailored learning for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Our daily schedule includes a mix of structured learning experiences and free play, ensuring that children of all ages have time to explore, learn, and build social skills with their peers.

Local care, supported by a bigger team

Our centre is proudly part of Evolve Education Group, giving us the strength and support of a wider network, with access to expertise and resources that help our centre, kaiako and tamariki thrive. 

That means our kaiako can focus on what matters most: building strong relationships with whānau, creating wonderful learning environments and helping every child feel safe, confident and ready to explore their world.

For whānau, it means enjoying all the warmth, connections and care of their local centre, with the added peace of mind knowing there's a whole group working to support quality early learning for your little one.

So, whether your whānau chooses Active Explorers, Lollipops, Learning Adventures or one of Evolve’s other brands, you’ll find a centre with its own unique character and a team dedicated to helping your child thrive.
