Putaruru Playcentre is a family/whanau led, licensed early childhood centre.

Playcentre is a family organisation where: * we empower adults and children to play, work, learn and grow together; * we honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi and celebrate people's uniqueness; * we value and affirm parents as the first and best educators of their children so that whānau are strengthened and communities enriched.
