Our Philosophy

Wisdom begins with wonder - by Socrates

To cherish the joy of families and the many different ways they come to us.

With Te Whaariki and Kei Tua o te Pae as guidelines, we recognise that each and every child is competent and capable, and we will adapt our pedagogy to support all learning. Theorists of human behaviour, Piaget, Vygotsky and Bronfennrenner, underpin our assessment and evaluation of children's learning.

VISIT TO MOTAT ON OUR LUNCHBOX DAY

Today we travelled by bus to MOTAT, along with our friends from the Kinross Street Centre, to see all kinds of transport. This was a special trip for our 4 year old children, and we call this outing "Lunch Box Day", because the children had to carry their own lunches and be responsible for eating properly, getting ready for school. At first we looked all around the main section of MOTAT and then we travelled to the Hanger section on Meola Road, where we ate our lunch. This was a fantastic trip and although it was overcast, the weather couldn't have been better. We eventually walked back down to Great North Road to catch the bus home. What a wonderful day we had, the children were great and we were pleasantly surprised at how fast the day went. Check out the photo display in the Centre to get more of an idea on what we covered.
