Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Rāhuitanga

"Mokopuna freely choose from a variety of resources to challenge their sensory, creative and physical needs. Play equipment is set up to provide challenges and encourage mokopuna to be courageous and have a go."

Strong play-based learning with resource variety; programme evaluation needs development.

"Kaimahi ensure positive interactions between mokopuna that foster sharing, caring and aroha. Mokopuna participate in activities for sustained periods of time. They enjoy learning with their peers and adults. Kaimahi consistently use positive affirmations to acknowledge mokopuna efforts and achievements."

Positive relationships, sustained engagement, affirming interactions support wellbeing.

"Whānau hui are held regularly and are well attended. Reporting has occurred across most aspects of management and operations and hui minutes are informative and detailed. Whānau undertake a regular cycle of review for policies and procedures. These are shared through the kōhanga reo private Facebook Page for whānau feedback."

Regular communication, attendance, detailed reporting; whānau engage in governance.

"The strategic plan is informed by Ngā Pou e Wha and identifies the priorities for the future development of the kōhanga reo. Continued improvement is a shared focus for whānau. Personnel matters are competently managed. Kaimahi individual employment agreements are clear, detailed and align to legislation."

Strategic planning in place; shared improvement focus; personnel management sound.
