'To inspire, to guide and to empower all Ako / learners within our environment'
The Kindergarten has a strong focus on creativity, nature education, biculturalism, literacy, numeracy, science & sustainability.
The children are proud of their extensive flower and vegetable garden, allowing active exploration and the opportunity to connect with nature and nourish body, mind and spirit.
Visitors to our Kindergarten enhance our programme & offer experiences that are valued. For example, we have Workshops for whanau , visiting yoga teachers, story tellers, bicultural teachers, & ‘buddies’ (tuakana-teina) from the local school.
We have a special relationship with the local iwi & our programme supports the cultural identity of all children.
We have a strong relationship with our wider community, take part in regular excursions and run excellent transitions in, between and beyond our kindergarten.
We are fully involved in Golden Bay's Kahui Ako/Community of Learners. We value and encourage parent & whanau involvement in our learning environment.
Our Kindergarten Teachers are 100% trained, registered and committed, and receive on-going professional development.
Golden Bay Kindergarten is committed to providing a high quality early childhood education, in a well resourced, fun and stimulating environment.
