Enrolments

Kidz Corner is a busy centre and we often need to put children on a waitlist until a space is available. We suggest contacting us at least 12 months before you need a place for your child, if you can.

Priority is given to families with other children at the centre, and to new enrolments for children under 16 months. To minimise lengthy wait times, if your child is over two years old we’ll keep them on the waitlist for a maximum period of six months before removing their name. If you have not heard from us in that time, unfortunately we are unable to offer your child a space at Kidz Corner.

To find out about the spaces we have available, or for any more enrolment questions, contact Helen 04 388 6556 or email.

Subsidies

WINZ Childcare Subsidies are available, forms are available from WINZ.

Structure

Kidz Corner is a Charitable Trust which was originally established in 1985 by members of Miramar Baptist Church. In May 2012, the Kidz Corner Parent Trust Board purchased the centre from the Church and is committed to building on its Christian heritage. Provisions within the Trust Deed ensure the Centre will remain a Christian Centre which makes a real difference in the lives of the children and parents involved with the Centre and the wider Community.
