I cannot recommend Oaktree Kindergarten highly enough. From the moment my daughter, Felicity,…read morestarted here, the teachers have gone above and beyond in creating a safe, loving, and inspiring environment. They are not only highly professional and experienced but also genuinely warm, patient, and attentive to each child's individual needs. What stands out most is how incredibly supportive and nurturing the teachers are. They truly see Felicity as a whole person -- encouraging her confidence, creativity, independence, and social skills. Whenever I drop her off, I feel reassured knowing she is surrounded by such dedicated and caring educators. The activities are also exceptional. From hands-on science experiments (like making "dinosaur eggs" fizz open with hidden surprises inside) to imaginative play, music, art, and storytelling, every day is filled with rich opportunities for learning and discovery. I've seen Felicity grow in confidence, curiosity, and joy since joining Oaktree, and she now comes home excited to share what she's learned. It is the greatest feeling as a parent to see my daughter run to her teachers with unconditional hugs and to know that she has a special connection with each and every one of them. That bond is priceless, and it speaks volumes about the heart this team puts into their work. A special thank you to Jane, Lucy, Jenny, Vanessa, Amy, and Natalie -- you are an incredible team, and I am deeply grateful for the love and dedication you show every single day. If you're looking for a kindergarten that is more than just a childcare centre -- a place where your child will be truly valued, guided, and inspired -- Oaktree Kindergarten is the best choice you could make.

Technically a child should be writing this review. I think if a four-year-old could type it would…read morego something like this... "I like going to kindy here because there is a fun playground with a slide and I can climb up on it with my friends. I like going on all the swings too! Inside there are toys everywhere I can play with and we also do painting and make cool stuff. I learnt to count in Maori and now I know all about fire trucks and police cars." But that's just a guess... I went to a four-year-old birthday party here in the weekend and it was the perfect venue for this event. The kids were set free on all the play equipment outside so there were no issues with keeping them entertained. There was a kitchen to prepare the party food and lots of nice shady areas for the adults to sit. I heard it was really inexpensive too with a small fee to be paid for birthday parties of any child enrolled in the kindy. My nephew comes here a few times a week and he absolutely loves it. He calls it "big boy kindy" and has made some wonderful friends here. The stories I hear about his adventures at Oaktree make me wish I could take a day off from my life to build sandcastles and paint pictures with the carefree kiddies.
