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.

A Funny Story

Today, while quietly minding my own business, watching the day pass by, a certain Mr N asked a very deep and profound question... "Mandy, do you work?" Followed by "My mum does." How is one to reply to such a question?

Walking through Lynn Mall with a shopping trolley full of groceries, one of the children spotted me, delighted to see me outside of the centre, and again, another very good, thoughtful question was asked... "Do teachers need groceries too?"

  1. Mandy, of course you don't work. You look after the children for fun....don't you? You think you need to eat as well!
