Welcome
At Kidz Kindy Blenheim @49 we provide an exciting, well balanced educational programme for children aged between 3-5 years.
Transition to school group – the ‘Owl Group’
Our Transition to School group meets daily. This small group’s focus is to develop skills to support our children with their transition to start school. We will be working on writing their names, holding their pencil correctly, identifying letter sounds and names, identifying numbers 1-10, counting in order, and enjoying books.

A beautiful Friday today @49. There’s nothing we love more than seeing our Tamariki exploring, laughing and learning together! 😊
These hands on experiences help develop:
🌱 Fine and gross motor skills
🌈 Creativity and imagination
🤝 Social skills and teamwork
🧠 Problem-solving and curiosity
😊 Confidence and independence
Today the tamariki at 75 had so much fun exploring a shared gloop sensory activity outside in the sunshine. There were smiles and giggles as tamariki squished, poured, mixed and experimented together. It was wonderful to see their curiosity, creativity, and cooperation shine as they explored the different textures and sensations. A beautiful way to learn through play in the warm sun slongside our friends! 🌞
All in a beautiful summers day at Kidz kindy @49. Look at all the happy tamariki we have here!
