Exploring Our Community – Te Wharekura Visit

Last week, our tamariki went on a special excursion to Commercial Bay to visit Te Wharekura. They were excited to explore a new environment, where they saw a waka and observed different Māori symbols. The children showed great curiosity as they looked closely, asked questions, and shared their thoughts.

Throughout the trip, they demonstrated confidence and positive group behaviour, enjoying the opportunity to connect with their community and learn more about Aotearoa’s culture.

Wishing a Happy Mother's Day to all our wonderful Mums!

Autumn in Little Hands 🍁

As autumn brings rich colours around us, tamariki explored coloured cornflour (the toddlers spread colourful cornflour across the tray) with their hands—squeezing, mixing, and pressing their little palms onto the paper. Through this playful moment, their sensory curiosity and early creativity gently blossomed.

Painting the New Zealand Flag🇳🇿🎨

Our tamariki explored the colours of the New Zealand flag and chose blue, white, and red paint. They used paintbrushes to create their own flags on cardboard.

This week we celebrated Chinese New Year together. Our tamariki enjoyed making dumplings, red decorations, exploring cultural traditions, and learning about the meaning of good luck and happiness. It was lovely to see their excitement and curiosity as we shared this special celebration. Thank you to the parents who joined us and made it extra special! 🎉

Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Please note our Christmas and New Year shut down period. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Water Ramp Racers

"Our tamariki explored an exciting Water Ramp Racers activity outdoors. Using long ramps, buckets of water, and a variety of small vehicles and objects, tamariki experimented with sending items down the ramps to see how fast and how far they would travel."

Last week was filled with fun, sunshine, and lots of learning adventures at Cosmo Kids!
