Rachel Reynolds Kindergarten

1906 South Dunedin Kindergarten open in St Peter’s Church Hall, Cargill Rd then shifted to Wesleyan Church School room.  A new building opened in 1914 as Rachel Reynolds Kindergarten.  This was demolished in 1977 as an earthquake risk and the present kindergarten built in 1978

“E ai oo parirau, hai rere mai”

“You have the wings to fly here”

All families and children are welcome to our Kindergarten.  At Rachel Reynolds 2  5 year old children have fun, play, and learn together in a caring and happy atmosphere where they are encouraged and supported to respect and care for each other.  Children can make close friends and get to know teachers well because we have small group sizes, only 30 children in the morning and 20 in the afternoon.   Children may come for the mornings only, or stay all day long; talk to a teacher to decide what would suit you and your child best.

We have a strong bicultural focus with a daily emphasis on using te reo and tikanga Māori. We are proud that each year our children perform at the Māori Pasifika Concert.

Many schools, shops, and services are handy to our kindergarten.  We hope you enjoy your time at Rachel Reynolds Kindergarten as we aim to make it a happy one.  Become part of our community, meet other families, and maybe enjoy sitting on our comfy sofa for a chat.
