Our Association                  Kindergartens Waikato Logo

Established in 1920, the Waikato Kindergarten Association operates as a Charitable Trust.  It currently has 29 kindergartens teaching 2,700 children throughout the Waikato region.  All kindergartens differ slightly in their operation such as hours/days depending on their educational and community needs.  Cost is minimal and all kindergartens have WINZ subsidies

The Mission Statement of the Waikato Kindergarten Association is:        

"To ensure that throughout its kindergartens learning will not be limited by gender, race, culture or by an inability to contribute financially.

Our kindergartens will reflect the values and customs of the families of children attending and will facilitate the interest and learning of all children by promoting their self esteem, confidence and independence.

The needs of the children will be the first and major consideration."
