Preparing children for life.

A collection of private preschools catering for

children 0 - 6 years

Welcome to Little School

Little School is a private preschool for children aged 2 - 6 years old. Our preschools are located at Churton Park and Khandallah in Wellington, and in St Heliers, Auckland. At Little School we have a strong educational focus.

Our Nursery caters for children under the age of two and is available in Khandallah, Wellington and St Heliers, Auckland.

Our aim is to offer your child a learning environment which is planned with exciting and challenging activities based on their individual needs. Their days will be fun and positive, providing a great foundation for their success at school.

We have sourced the best educational resources available to provide your child with a variety of stimulating programmes through structure, play, and time to explore.

We work with each child to design an individualised plan for their time here at Little School. Using Te Whāriki as a starting point we use play, time in nature, time with the teaching team, and our own dedicated and extensive programmes to extend their learning and development.

“We have been at Khandallah Little School for about 1.5 years now and absolutely love it.

The staff are wonderful - communicative, caring, professional and supportive. Nothing is ever too much trouble.

They strike a perfect balance of nurturing, learning, fun activities and structure.

We could not recommend KLS more highly.”
