Creativity and cognitive processes of children
Creativity becomes more visible when adults try to be more attentive to the cognitive processes of children than to the results they achieve in various fields of doing and understanding.

"Our task, regarding creativity, is to help children climb their own mountains, as high as possible. No one can do more." ~Loris Malaguzzi

Welcome to Peter Pan Childcare
Peter Pan Childcare Centre is a purpose built early learning centre that provides education and care for children aged between 3 months and 5 years old. Although children are separated by age groups, there is flexibility in our routines that allow children to visit other classrooms throughout the day.
Our curriculum is based on the Reggio Emilia approach to teaching and learning. This approach proposes that we teach children how to learn rather than fill their heads with knowledge that may or may not be useful in the future.

News and Events
Spring is in the air!
Winter season is nearly over and we will be enjoying again the fresh start of Spring. However, our weather condition is extremely variable – from frosty mornings often turn into warm, sunny day or from rain to hail. So just ensure that your child has proper clothing to any weather condition of the day.
Soon to open!
A new Peter Pan Childcare Centre at 77 Mahunga Drive, Favona. As with all our centres, we are inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach of teaching and learning. Please visit us there and let your family, friends and neighbours know that we are now taking registrations for enrolments. Feel free to call our office at 09-6258844 or send her an email to ask@peterpanchildcare.co.nz.
