Our Waiuku Community

Little Ants. Proudly Local.

There's something special about growing up in a community where people know one another.

Little Ants has been part of Waiuku for more than a decade. As a locally owned, family-operated childcare centre, we're proud of our connections with local families and want to make them even stronger.

We believe children learn a lot from the people, places and experiences around them.

Bringing Our Community Into Little Ants

There's a whole world of interesting people doing interesting things right here in Waiuku.

Farmers, builders, firefighters, police officers and local business owners all have knowledge and experiences worth sharing. We want to create opportunities for children to meet these people, ask questions and discover more about the world around them. It's all part of making learning practical, engaging and fun.

Getting Out And Exploring

Learning doesn't have to stay within the centre's gates. We're keen to develop more opportunities for children to explore Waiuku through local outings, community activities and shared experiences. These connections help children develop curiosity, confidence and a sense of belonging to something bigger.

Celebrating Our Community

Every family brings something different to Little Ants.

We value the cultures, traditions and experiences that make up our community and want every child and whānau to feel welcomed and included. After all, Little Ants is more than somewhere children come to learn and play. It's a community that families become part of.

Come And Be Part Of Little Ants
