Learning Lounge's - Places of Discovery
Sparrow's -  Tui's -  Pukeko's - Tuatara's
Weka is housed in two villas with spacious grounds and an interior that has been carefully maintained to reflect the period in which it was built, allowing it to have character and a homely feel throughout all learning lounges. 

From the moment you walk through the front gate, the impression of connection with culture, calmness, aesthetics and the love of learning is observed, felt and embraced.

The environment is designed to be an extension from a home setting, that is safe while also offering challenging and interest that invites children to explore and become fully involved in a wide variety of experiences that are strongly immersed in resources that are real or from the natural world.
