At Little Acorns, our mission is to provide an environment and relationships that nurture positive growth for not only the children but their families and whānau, the staff, and the wider community.
KĀKANO (UNDER TWOS)
In Kākano room, we believe that children’s needs take precedence over any routines that may be convenient for the centre or the staff. We will work with you to try and replicate your child’s home routine as much as possible. Throughout the day the children are free to choose what activities they will explore and engage in and we try to set up experiences that extend on current interests/strengths/urges etc. We will offer a range of small ’group’ times that may involve singing/dancing, puppets, books etc but it is optional for your child to join in.
MĀHURI (OVER THREE'S)
For the most part of our programme, the children are engaged in free play and exploration. The teachers set up the environment to reflect the children’s strengths, interests, and to extend on their learning and curiosity. There is a welcome mat time in the morning where we come together to say our centre karakia and mihimih’s. We also have a music and movement mat time before lunch.
