We will kick off the tour with a talk, starting at 10 am. We'll go through some commonly asked questions around touring ECEs and how things work at Oma Rapeti ELC. We will then have the centre open and available to tour, so you can see our space.

Here at Oma Rāpeti we always ask that families attend our Open Day first, so they can get a feel for the philosophy and how things work here. From there you will be invited to visit the Centre when tamariki are present if we can offer you a space here. There will be plenty of time to see us in action - we love having whānau about! We have written a blog explaining a little more about why we have chosen to have Open Days here.

Please arrive by 9.50 am at the latest for the talk. There is plenty of parking both in our car park and on street. Please note we have limited seating and may only have standing options, depending on numbers.

Your children are more than welcome to attend but you will need to keep an eye on them, of course. If you want to bring along a partner or caregiver they are welcome to supervise the children within our outdoor play space while the other listens to the talk, before joining us for the tour through the centre.

You can call the centre on the day on 09-376-7282 if you need.
