## Purpose

Te Akonga Early Learning Centre is a community based centre providing quality early childhood education for all children including those with additional needs. We promote positive outcomes for our children through the development of warm responsive relationships and quality learning experiences.

We endeavour to support our pre-schoolers to be self-confident and socially competent children who are ready to transition to school with a positive attitude to learning.
