Busy Bees Avonhead

📚 Recently some of our wonderful Kea room tamariki went on another fun excursion to Riccarton Primary! The sun was shining as they departed in the morning, and they enjoyed a lovely walk, once at the school they joined in with the class and got to try out all the cool activities! Thank you so much for having us, we truly appreciate the opportunity to have you as part of our school readiness programme!

Last night, we had our first ever ENGAGE whānau evening, here at the center! We loved getting to connect with our whānau after hours and share a little of what we have been bringing into our teachings lately. A great big thank you to all those who could attend, and a huge thank you to our wonderful ENGAGE facilitator, Fiona, who delivered her presentation in such a fun, engaging way!

🎨 Various forms of arts and crafts are essential for fine motor skills, they provide a beautiful introduction into learning how to hold and use a pencil for school. Art also provides tamariki with a creative outlet for self expression and communication, we love art in our Pūkeko room and it can be seen daily, in so many different forms!🎨

🏅Our MOVE programme has been continuing to turn up the heat on these cold, frosty mornings! Coach Carter has been working with the tamariki on their balance and ball skills while we continue to practice our wonderful teamwork! 🏅 # #

🇮🇳We are lucky enough to have so many wonderful different cultures here with us at preschool, we have been encouraging an exploration of culture by using baskets filled with fun books, photos and resources. Our tamariki have been confidently showing and sharing their cultural explorations with their hoa and its wonderful to see!🇮🇳

📚Some snippets of the beautiful learning that goes on in our Kea room, and throughout the environment! Its lovely to see our tamariki taking charge of their own learning through play opportunities too! ✏️

Graduations : Recently we said ka kite and happy school days to some if our wonderful tamariki who have been with us for years! Started in the Tiny Tui room and now graduated from the Pukeko! What a beautiful journey!!!!

It has been an absolute privilege to help you to grow and support you on your journeys to school, we look forward to your visits!💫

🏅Coach Carter has been busy lately, there have been so many new games to challenge and support our tamariki ball skills, focus, sharing and motor skills! Check out some of the action! 🏅

✨️ Yesterday Miss Wendy from the mobile library came to visit us! We love our visits from her as she leads beautiful hui times with us! We learn new stories and even join in with her interactive musical games and songs! ✨️

We have recently received some beautiful feedback from our whānau, and this piece truly captures the heart of what makes our centre so special 🐝🧡

Creating a place where children feel safe, supported, encouraged, and genuinely loved is at the centre of everything we do. We are so grateful to be trusted as part of each child’s learning journey and to be part of our wider village alongside our families.

To our amazing whānau - thank you for your kind words, trust, and support. It means the world to our team and reminds us every day why we do what we do ✨
