Child-centred learning
Educational activities are developmentally appropriate for the individual child – emerging through play.
Grounded in culture
Honoring of Te Tiriti or Waitangi as the bi-cultural foundation of Aotearoa/New Zealand. Cherishing our uniqueness in the world.


In relation with nature
We learn to appreciate nature – caring for and finding our place in nature.
Empowered for life
By fostering their imagination, their sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility, our children grow into the citizens our world needs.
