Welcome to a hidden gem in North East Valley
Come for a visit today!
Why come to Islington?
Islington Early Childhood Centre is a small, not-for-profit, community-based Centre providing high-quality education for tamariki aged 2-5 years.
​
We are open 8.30-2.30pm, 5 days a week, excluding school holidays, convenient for family trips and vacations.
Located in the heart of North East Valley, Dunedin for the last 50 years.
Our small teacher-to-student ratio allows for children to thrive each day. Our welcoming environment enhances the sense of belonging for both tamariki and whanau.
Our doors are always open for Islington whanau. Community engagement is valued and encouraged in both tamariki learning and centre participation.

Our Philosophy: Learning for Life
At Islington we provide a safe and fun environment with the help of our new and improved outdoor playground, where children feel secure in their sense of belonging.​
​
We are all about community, family and - most of all - the children. ​
​
The teachers and committee welcome you to visit Islington and see first hand what we have to offer your family. ​

Join in, get to know us and have fun!
