Active Explorers

About Active Explorers Swanson

At Active Explorers Swanson, we focus on building strong relationships with tamariki and whanau, creating a warm, supportive environment where children can thrive socially, emotionally, and academically. Our centre is purpose-built with six rooms for different age groups, providing tailored spaces for each child’s developmental needs.

We offer a safe, multi-cultural environment with adventurous outdoor spaces where tamariki explore, play, and challenge themselves physically. Inside, the rooms are intentionally designed to spark curiosity and learning, with activities that nurture fine motor skills, literacy, and self-regulation.

Centre life is full of fun and educational activities, from messy play and sensory exploration to cultural celebrations. Each room caters to specific age groups, ensuring that children’s needs are met while offering an enriching experience every day.

Our Team

Our dedicated team of warm and friendly kaiako is passionate about creating a nurturing space for tamariki to feel loved and valued. We pride ourselves on working closely with families to support each child’s development and celebrate cultural diversity.

Our Spaces

Our centre boasts large, inviting indoor and outdoor spaces where tamariki engage in hands-on learning, explore nature, and express their creativity. Every corner is thoughtfully designed to nurture curiosity, independence, and cultural identity.
