At Terrace End Busy Bees, our team means everything. We love any opportunity to dress up alongside our tamariki! Who do you think should win best dressed?
We are excited to introduce to you - Bee Curious ๐
Early learning is so much more than what meets the eye. It's rich conversations, problem-solving, social development, resilience building, creativity, and connection, all woven together in meaningful ways.
Bee Curious is our Curriculum Framework, built on the strong foundation of the Te Whฤriki. It celebrates curiosity, supports intentional teaching, and helps our tamariki grow in confidence, creativity, and capability.
Watch, enjoy, and stay curious with us!

Every month at Busy Bees Terrace End, kaiako have a team hui to connect over curriculum, planning and assessment for children, and to spend time connecting as a team.
This Monday evening, we were fortunate enough to host Jerome and Ruiha who shared their Taonga Puoro (voices of the environment) used for rongoฤ so the team here have a connected and shared focus for 2026 as kaiako. Jerome and Ruiha work in balance as taha wahine and taha tane bringing the healing practices of taonga puoro into kura and marae throughout Aotearoa.
Here are some photos of the incredible taonga puoro used Monday evening as part of our sound experience.
Whiria te taura here tฤngata
