Our Homestead whānau had a wonderful time at the Kaipātiki Reserve for our Christmas celebration ✨

A wonderful time to come together to connect, reflect and relax 🎄 We hope you all manage to have a chance to rest and spend time with whānau over the festive period! Meri Kirihimete - Merry Christmas.

Kia Ora families of The Homestead. Can you please check your child's Educa for a very important message this morning 😊

Don't forget dress up day tomorrow whānau 😝

Kia Ora Whānau. We are in search of...cultural artifacts, books, utensils and silverware to enrich our learning environment and to vamp up our mud kitchen. Also... pinecones, shells, driftwood, natural collectable resources.
Please drop off to the community crates at The Homestead.

Ngā mihi

The joy of getting messy 🖌🙌
Infants and toddlers thrive through open ended, messy activities where they can explore with their senses. With limited restrictions, children are able to follow their natural curiosities, be playful and discover things about the world with autonomy.
This self-paced and child-led learning develops skills such as focus, persistence and initiative. Which pave the way for exceptional life long learning!

Born to perform 🎭
Dispositions like confidence, creativity, playfulness and participation fostered and developed in an early childhood education are some of the foundational dispositions required for lifelong learning.

✨Mānawatia a Matariki ✨ 2024

Thank you to all our wonderful whānau for making this celebration such a special one. Everyone did their little bit so we could come together, share in a hangi, celebrate, remember and put wishes out for the future.
