Exceptional and Dedicated Teachers Wanted!
Young Farmers is a new purpose-built centre designed to cater for 120 children including infants on a 5-acre land area in Kumeu. The facilities include generous playgrounds for all ages plus a further 4 acres for the mini farm which will include a range of typical farm animals and a large vegetable garden.
