Management Team

 

Mary Ma    The  co-founder

 I am a successful business woman and have many years of experience related with medical equipment. I moved to Auckland in 2000.  I decided to invest in early childhood education because I believe that children are the future of our society; children deserve the best. I am also a professional Erhu (two string violin) player. I believe that music is a universal language. I am eager to share my music learning journey with children.  I will also work in the centre as a teacher aid as I love working with children.

I joined early childhood education inspired by my daughter Juliana 8 years ago. I learn, teach and grow with my daughter. I am a qualified and provisionally registered teacher. Currently I am studying towards Master of Early Childhood Education. 
My interest is to research child development theories. By doing research and practice, my long term goal is to take the essence of the eastern and the western culture, combine the different theories to explore a unique, teaching approach which caters to individual child’s developmental needs. I believe that one of the most important responsibilities of early childhood educators is to build foundations for children to be life long learners. I aspire to sow seeds in children’s heart to promote equality in this multi-cultural New Zealand society so that When they grow up, they are able to make a contribution to the society and make this world a better place.

Anu-Assistant manager/Head teacher

I have been working with children as a teacher for 10 years in New Zealand. I am a qualified and fully registered early childhood teacher. I started my teaching career as a teacher and then grew up to be a head teacher. I have worked with children from different age groups from babies to young children. I have had a chance to mentor student teachers on practicum as well.  I am very passionate about early childhood education and strongly believe in advocating for the rights of children by providing them with opportunities to be active participants in their own learning. I am confident that I can make a big difference in children’s life by offering them the best and high quality education and care.
