Our Philosophy

We are advocates for children and their rights (UNCROC). We believe in quality education, reflecting the bicultural heritage of Aotearoa, New Zealand. We work alongside and support family, whānau and community to provide rich environments for belonging, well-being and learning.
Children are supported to build foundations to become lifelong learners, who are motivated, respectful, resourceful, resilient, reflective and ready, willing and able to learn.
