❄️ Jack Frost might make it hard to get out of bed on these chilly mornings, but he’s also bringing a little bit of winter magic to our Pūkenga room! ✨
With ice appearing around our playground, our tamariki have been enjoying exploring its cold, slippery, fascinating properties.
Today, we turned the frozen discs left in our mud kitchen sinks into a winter canvas, painting our icy treasures! 🎨❄️

📚 Little readers, big learning! ❤️
There’s so much happening when tamariki explore books together. Pointing out pictures, sharing ideas, building vocabulary and making meaning from what they see.
These everyday moments are the building blocks for a lifelong love of literacy! ✨

Mask Making
Our 4 year olds got creative designing their own masks, with some drawing inspiration from their favourite superheroes! 🦸♀️✨
A fun way to explore creativity, dramatic play, imagination and making connections to the world around them.

Our Pūkenga tamariki had an absolute blast on Friday taking part in our very own Featherston Street Commonwealth Games 2026! 🇳🇿 🏅
From shot put, long jump and discus to weightlifting, sprints and sack races, there was plenty of fun, movement and friendly competition! 💪🏽🏃🏽♀️
A fantastic afternoon of teamwork, cheering on our friends, trying new things and getting active.

Our dedicated 2 year old Montessori space is a great preliminary introduction to the Montessori philosophy, where they learn so much about the world around them!
It's truly wonderful how these young tamariki blossom with such a wonderful foundation.
We're so excited about the amazing preliminary work happening in the younger Casa room, fostering those crucial early learning skills. It's been a tireless effort, but seeing their faces light up with discovery makes it all worthwhile.
We're dedicated to providing a beautiful environment for every teina to explore and grow.
Come see the grand adventure of learning!
