Hadlow Pre-School welcomes children from throughout the Wairarapa region

At Hadlow Pre-School we welcome children from across the region into our nurturing environment.  Established in 1982, we are proud to be a part of the Trinity School network, which includes Hadlow School, Rathkeale College and St. Matthews Collegiate School and although we aim to create pathways into the Trinity School system, we also welcome preschoolers that will be moving onto alternative schools.​

Our main goal is to nurture and encourage development and growth within children so they are well-prepared and ready to move onto their intended school when the time comes.  ​

Our Mission!

"To provide a balanced programme which promotes the holistic development of all children."
