I have been privileged to be part of the Active Explorers whanau now for about 14 months. His love of te reo maori has been fully supported and his ability to say his mihi and lead karakia has blown me away. The communication has been great and i enjoy the conversations between teachers. I am always informed about how he’s doing and what he has done during the day and he will still venture back to visit which we think is pretty neat. Seth has grown so much in his time at Active Explorers and I know he will be well prepared for when goes to school with the support of the rising 5's. A big thank you to all the team for taking such great care of our pepi and laying down the foundations for his learning journey.

In two short years that our kids have been at Active Explorers Victoria Ave, we have seen them both blossom into amazing confident youngsters and we are grateful that this centre has helped to shape them. The amazing teachers and wonderful activities that our children partake in everyday has helped us to build a healthy future for them both. If anyone ever asks me where they go I am very quick to tell them Active Explorers on Victoria Ave, best teachers, best facilities and best activities. Thank you for helping us support Aurora and Hendrix.

Active Explorers Victoria Ave is not just a daycare centre, it is a family. It is reassuring to know that my toddler is surrounded by loving caring teachers and children who are so eager to help him learn and progress. All the teachers in the centre are aware of all kids in the centre even if they aren’t in the same class, this just shows how caring they are! Seeing how proud his teachers are of him and how supportive they are makes the centre the best choice we could have made.
