Our favourite 2019 ERO comments:
Children engage in a wide range of meaningful learning experiences. They are empowered to lead their own learning. Teachers value children's ideas, choices and opinions and encourage exploration to support their developing working theories. Literacy, mathematics, science and physical activity are strong features of the local curriculum. Children are encouraged to problem solve and extend their thinking.
Through the broad curriculum children make strong connections with the local community. A growing strength of the kindergarten is the building of cultural responsiveness to further support Māori children and their whānau to experience success. The teaching team, children and their families are developing their knowledge of the Māori world and the significance of local landmarks. Māori children see that their language, culture and identity are valued.
