Small Oaks Early Learning Centre, formerly known as Original Kids, has proudly been part of the Manurewa community for nearly 30 years. Housed in a renovated bungalow, our centre offers a balance of rich learning environments within a warm, homely setting.
Since taking ownership in 2024, our dedicated and established teaching team continues to create a space that is not only welcoming to all but also provides a stable, nurturing environment where children can truly grow and thrive.
As a small, mixed-age centre, we provide opportunities for siblings and whānau to spend time together, fostering strong relationships while making new friendships. Our setting also naturally supports the principles of tuakana-teina, where tamariki learn from and support one another in meaningful, age-diverse interactions.
