Welcome To Carlyle Kindergarten
At Carlyle Kindergarten we celebrate Napier’s history with a focus on 21st Century learning. We incorporate the ‘Virtues Project’ into our daily lives and we are dedicated to keeping up to date with current theories and practice. We have highlighted literacy as an area of interest in a recent ICT Research project. Children’s interests are our interests.
We have a lush, vibrant outdoor environment that is often admired and ever changing. Teachers and children welcome interested families. Our kindergarten becomes 'tent city' when we host an overnight sleepover for parents and children.

Our Favourite 2019 ERO Comments:
Children experience warm and welcoming relationships with teachers. Effective teaching strategies support children’s developing social and emotional competency. Thoughtful conversations between children and teachers promote rich oral language development. Collaborative relationships between children and teacher encourage problem solving and challenge children’s thinking. Teachers positively encourage and acknowledge children's efforts and successes.
Children actively participate in a curriculum that reflects the beliefs and values of the kindergarten's philosophy. They are supported to build their knowledge about New Zealand’s unique cultural heritage through the integration of te reo me ngā tikanga Māori. Children have opportunities to learn about stories and landmarks of significance to local Māori. Māori children experience an environment where their language and culture are affirmed.
