Through Mana aotūroa (exploration) our tamariki learn how to:
  • Mahira -  Be curious and inquisitive.
  • Rangahau - Search, research and investigate.
  • Whakamatau - Test, examine and experiment.
  • Mahi-tahi - Work and collaborate together.

We empower our tamariki to learn and grow. Kaiako engage individually with tamariki working
closely with whānau to develop a learning environment that enables them to flourish.

Whānau Testimonial
"Our whānau couldn’t be happier with the care, effort, learning opportunities and individual learning support that our child receives at Motueka Kindergarten.
We are always warmly welcomed and supported in our child’s learning. The Kaiako (teachers) know each child well. There is fantastic communication both verbally as well as written (Storypark). This is one of the many strengths of this Kindergarten and it’s wonderful staff.

Thank you for all of the awesome mahi you and your team put in every day."
