The Principles of Te Kura o Te Wainui-ā-Rua
Whakamana i te tamaiti
Our curriculum will empower each tamaiti to enhance their mana and support them to enhance the mana of others.
Kotahitanga
Our kura knows and embraces the cultural, physical, emotional, cognitive and spiritual dimensions are interwoven in human development and tamariki grow and learn with this holistic approach. Relationships with others, physical surroundings and emotional needs will affect what they learn.
Whānaungatanga
Our kura believes the well being of the tamaiti is interdependent with the well being of their kaiako, whānau and hapū. We believe culture, knowledge and community are supported and respected and when the adults in our lives help our tamariki/mokopuna to make connections across settings.
Ngā Hononga
Connections to our past, present and future are integral to our kura. Tamariki have opportunities try their ideas with others and refine their working theories through relationships. We value collaborative aspirations, achievements and ventures.
