## Purpose

Titahi Bay Playcentre provides an early childhood education setting where parents are valued as first and best educators of their children, and have an active day-to-day role in providing care and education for both their, and others' children. Our Playcentre seeks to provide an environment where children are nurtured holistically and given opportunities to play, grow, learn, develop and explore. Children who have attended our Playcentre will be competent and confident in their own abilities, and as learners. Parents involved in our community feel supported in their role as parents and develop skills and knowledge to assist them in their parenting journey and beyond.
