OUR CURRICULUM
Our curriculum is based on New Zealand’s Early Childhood Curriculum – Te Whāriki. We see children as competent learners and communicators, secure in their sense of belonging and confident in their contributions to society.
Te Whāriki, meaning ‘woven mat’, integrates four curriculum principles with five strands. Together, these elements express our vision for children. Our teachers collaborate with children, parents, and whanau to weave these principles and strands into a local curriculum that promotes positive learning outcomes.
The Four Principles / Kaupapa Whakahaere of Te Whāriki are:
- Family & Community | Whānau tangata – Family and community are integral to the curriculum.
- Relationships | Ngā hononga – Children learn through responsive and reciprocal relationships.
- Empowerment | Whakamana – The curriculum empowers children to learn and grow.
- Holistic Development | Kotahitanga – The curriculum reflects the holistic nature of children’s learning and development.
