What an exciting Easter Bonnet Parade we had together today!

Our tamariki and whānau had so much fun proudly showing off their beautiful bonnets, while singing and dancing joyfully at the parade.

A special thank you to our wonderful whānau who joined us for this special event. Moment like this strengthen our sense of whanaungatanga, bringing us closer together as a community.

As we celebrate Easter, we reflect on new beginnings, growth, and connection. It is heartwarming to see our tamariki continuing to grow and flourish each day!

Happy Easter! 🐣

Today, we joyfully celebrated Lunar New Year together! Our tamariki dressed up in beautiful cultural costumes and enjoyed a hands-on experience making dumplings and rice balls.

Through this special activities, they learned how these traditional foods are shared with family during Lunar New Year to symbolise unity and togetherness.

A big thank you to our wonderful whānau for joining us to make dumplings. What a fantastic partnership, working together to enrich our children’s learning experiences!

This week we celebrated a few graduation ceremonies as our children get ready to head off to primary school next week. It was a mix of excitement and a few emotional moments, especially as many of them have been with us since they were just five months old.

We’ve shared so many special memories, achievements, and successes together, watching them grow and learn every step of the way.

We wish them the happiest school days ahead and lots of fun as they begin the next chapter of their learning journey!

Kia ora 2026!!!🌟

Happy New Year! Here’s to a year filled with curiosity, laughter, and connection. We can’t wait to share new adventures, learning moments, and lots of little everyday joys with our amazing tamariki and whānau. 💛🐝✨
