Little Legends Pukete OSCAR Weekly Programmes are designed to enable children to have a good time playing before going to school. Children who have been at school all day will be welcomed into a family-type structured programme. The programmes are designed to give a variety of activities and choices.
Our programmes are designed to ensure a balance between free-flow play, structured games, quiet time, homework support and responsibility for self and group harmony.
Little Legends Pukete OSCAR Programme is an OSCAR-approved and registered programme. OSCAR is the government-appointed accrediting agency for out-of-school networks in New Zealand. To be OSCAR approved means we have defined and approved policies and procedures, which include such things as child safety and staff appointments.

peers and the environment.
● Your family values and cultures are unique and will be supported.
