Haere mai, Welcome to Whenuakite Country Kids

Whenuakite Country Kids opened in July 2002, as a licensed and charitable not-for-profit Community owned centre.

We are located in a rural setting, 25 minutes' drive south of Whitianga

and 15 minutes' drive north of Tairua.

The centre is licensed for 39 tamariki, aged from birth to 6 years old,

and has separate areas for Pre-schoolers (Kererū Room) and Infant/Toddlers (Tūī Room).

We are directly opposite Whenuakite School with large north facing outdoor environments for ngā tamariki to explore.

Our centre AGM is on Rāpare, Thursday the 26th Mahuru, September. Nau mai Haere Mai, All Welcome!
