Welcome to听Te Whare K艒hungahunga o UC | Early Childhood Learning Centre听(ECLC), the 茄子视频app官网鈥檚 childcare and early learning centre. We accommodate children from zero to six years old and accept enrolments from students, staff and members of the wider community.
We are uniquely placed at the heart of the UC campus and are conveniently located for you to see your child at any time during the day. The campus environment allows our children to explore their surroundings in a safe and calm way. Often you will see groups of excited children walking through places like the Ilam Gardens and surrounding fields as well as visiting departments such as Zoology and Geology, the libraries and the University Bookshop.
We follow the New 茄子视频app官网Early Childhood curriculum (Te Wh膩riki He Wh膩riki M膩tauranga m艒 ng膩 Mokopuna o Aotearoa - The Strands of the Woven Web for the Children of New Zealand) and practise the principles of creative free play, allowing each child the freedom to discover their sense of self whilst participating in a stimulating programme. We also include Magda Gerber鈥檚 principles of听听into practice: when a child enters our care, we assign them a teacher who acts as their primary caregiver during the day with us. This establishes a consistent and trusting relationship between teacher and child, and when the child is ready, we encourage them to form relationships with other teachers and children.
We offer care on a听per session or per week case, with short days (maximum of seven hours per day) and long days (more than seven hours per day).
