- Play-based learning that follows Te Whariki, the NZ curriculum

- Children grow into competent and confident life-long learners
Magic Sparks offers ECE and childcare in Palmerston North, Paraparaumu and Petone
Our Mission
To create a culture of empowerment, lighting the sparks of potential in each individual
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is based on three pillars, respect for ourselves which develops emotional intelligence, respect for each other which develops social competence, and respect for the environment. We believe that if children know who they are, their unique personality and strengths (their ‘Genius’) then we are setting them on a path for success and happiness. Every child is a unique perfectly imperfect Genius. It is our job to help them see just how amazing and talented they are.
We provide a safe, loving, caring and nurturing environment which provides the foundation on which we build our relationships and learn about ourselves, others and our environment.
