affordable daycare
Dear Neighbours,
In light of the increasing expenses that we all face, we understand the challenges of managing our finances. That is why we would like to offer a solution for families in our community.
At our childcare center Secret Garden ELC located at 428 Albany Highway, we are pleased to provide 30 hours of free care for all children until they are ready to start school. We believe that every child deserves access to quality early education, which is why we want to make it affordable for all families.
Any additional hours beyond the 30 free hours will be charged at a flexible rate to ensure that it is comfortable for you to pay. You can choose booking hours between 7.30 am and 5.30 pm, giving you the flexibility to fit childcare into your schedule.
Our center boasts a large outdoor area with fruit trees, perfect for physical activities and exploration. We have two cozy rooms for different age groups and a friendly teaching team, with 80 percent of our staff being qualified professionals.
We understand the importance of providing a safe and nurturing environment for young children, and we strive to create a place where they can learn and grow happily.
If you are interested in learning more about our childcare services or would like to schedule a visit, please feel free to reach out to us. We are here to support you and your family in any way we can. Our contact phone is 09 4150535, email info@secretgarden4kids.co.nz

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
