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.

Mandy has some renovations going on at her house at the moment and mentioned to some children how she likes to make muffins for the builders to enjoy each Friday. Grace wanted to taste one of Mandy's home baked muffins and so Mandy said she would try to remember to bring some in. Unfortunately, there was only enough for the builders and so we decided to make some of our own muffins 'Learning Curves style'.


Mandy thought that this was an awesome opportunity for the children to learn using all of their senses and by participating within the process - it is good to learn by 'doing'. Learning stories will be added to the portfolios of the children involved but in the mean time, please take a moment to view the photos.


As always, we appreciate any comments in the box below.

    Thank you for your comment, Linda. We hope to continue adding to the blog. I wish we had a blog when my boys were at kindergarten. It would have been awesome for the grandparents overseas too.
    Thanks
    Mandy
