Kelston Community Early Childhood Centre

"Children are well supported to transition into the service. Whānau who spoke with ERO, appreciate the positive relationships teachers establish with their children, and themselves. Children confidently share their feelings, interests and ideas with each other and their teachers. They demonstrate a strong sense of belonging."

Excellent transitions, relationships, emotional safety, and strong sense of belonging evidenced.

"Leaders and teachers work collaboratively to build their professional knowledge. Teachers are supported to take responsibility for their own professional learning. They are continuing to increase their understanding of how to use internal evaluation to identify the impacts of improvements made. There are established systems that support decision making and an ongoing focus on what is happening for children and their learning."

Strong collaborative leadership, professional learning support, and internal evaluation practices.
