Philosophy Statement

We aim to provide an inviting and welcoming environment for all tamariki and their whānau to feel safe and have a sense of belonging.

We believe that a reciprocal relationship between the teachers, tamariki, whānau and community will result in a partnership based on trust and respect for all people, places, and things.

Our curriculum reflects a bicultural kaupapa within today’s multicultural society under the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi.  We offer an insightful yet empathetic understanding of the community we serve and the wider world we live in.

Our play and care-based environment assures that tamariki are seen through a holistic lens. This enables teachers to connect with and work alongside our tamariki and foster lifelong learning.
