St Mark's Preschool

St Mark’s Preschool encourages and invites parents and whanau to actively participate in their child’s learning. The relationships between families and the Preschool are most important to us. Here is what some of our parents and whanau have to say about St Mark’s Preschool.

David and Alanna Mackay

Claudia and Alex’s Parents

Both our children have benefited enormously from their time at St Mark’s Preschool. Right from the earliest days of the preschool, through to preparation for moving up to primary school, the team have been focused on providing stimulating learning experiences, and outstanding pastoral care. It’s been the best possible start for their schooling, and, at the same time, a warm, caring and nurturing environment.

Hugo’s Mum

Being a part of the St Marks community through my son attending the Preschool was the best start to his formal learning I could have wanted. As a parent when you leave your precious cargo in someone else’s hands you can only hope they are in a nurturing and caring environment that will build their confidence and excitement about learning while having fun. The environment Charmaine and her amazing team have created is just that! Engaging, fun activities that cater for each child’s individual needs and teachers who get as much joy out of the learning experience as the children. My son has headed off to Year 1 in the main school with a confidence and skills to assist him in taking that next step in his learning journey – I couldn’t be happier.

Finnegan’s Mum

Finding a school with a nurturing learning environment was important to us and this is exactly what we found at St Mark’s. The preschool has provided our son with an experience above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. When he started at just two years old, we had fears that school would be overwhelming for him, but the amazing staff immediately made Preschool feel like a second home. His teachers have sparked a love of learning most parents could only dream of. If you’re looking for the perfect mix of fun and academics you will find it at St Mark’s.
