Te Puna Reo o Pukehinahina

Te Puna Reo o Pukehinahina is a purpose built centre on Gate Pā school grounds established by whānau o Pukehinahina in 2015. We offer quality early childhood education in a kaupapa Māori, full immersion setting.

Our kaiako are passionate about Te Ao Māori, early childhood education and are speakers of Te Reo Māori.  We believe in making learning fun by following the child’s interests, encouraging play, exploration and risk-taking in a supportive, nurturing environment

Our marautanga/curriculum is designed around concepts  of Te Ao Māori, matauranga, kaitiakitanga, tuaka teina.  Tamariki here have priority into te kura rumaki o Te Kura o Pukehinahina/Gate Pā School.  As teina of Gate Pā school, we have access to the school grounds, library and participation in the rumaki programme.
