Welcome to the Northland Kindergarten Association

The Northland Kindergarten Association (NKA) has 20 wonderful kindergartens each with a unique character and feel that mirror the community and environment in which they are situated. We have kindergartens spread between Kerikeri in the mid-north to Ruawai in the heart of the Kaipara.

We encourage and provide the opportunity for parents and Whanau to be part of the experience that only kindergartens can provide for our children. Each kindergarten has a fully trained teaching team and a ratio of 1 teacher for every 10 children.

Kindergartens have been part of New Zealand culture for over 100 years and continue to be the leaders in Early Childhood Education. Our Kindergartens don’t just provide a service for a community they are part of the community “Giving our children an excellent start for lifelong learning”.

Our strategic plan has been developed in line with the Governments strategic plan, Pathways to the Future: Nga Huarahi Arataki 2012. We strive to provide
the best possible Early Childhood Education (ECE) available
for the tamariki/children of Northland.

Kind Regards
