HAPPY Learning English

A picture paints a thousand words. Write a caption for this photo. Ask your child to tell you a sentence about this photo. Write what they say. Allow them to read the sentence three times as you both point to the words. Maybe your child can practice writing the sentence.

Kia ora whanau!!! How is everyone coping? It has been about a year now since I have finished supporting HIPPY parents and children in Rotorua. I have really missed those WOW MOMENTS! I have noticed that our tamariki/children have not being able to attend their early childhood centre, kindergarten, kohanga reo, or school due to the pandemic. So I have decided to set a little time aside to continue to support past HIPPY whanau/families with learning and development. My main focus will be teaching English and Te Reo Maori. If anyone needs some support or even if you just want to have a korero/chat please feel free to private message me. I've also noticed that people are still viewing this page so I'm guessing there is still a need.

The 1st 15 families who enroll by Friday 5th March go into the draw to win this $50 Pak n Sav gift card. The first four weeks need to be complete by Friday 16th April.

Thank you, once again, to Countdown in the mall, for donating the yummy cake for the children's celebration.

Thank you Prabhashi and Evin for attending in your beautiful traditional Sri Lankan clothing. You both looked very stunning.

Thank you to all of the whanau who came to the End of Year Celebration for HIPPY Rotorua. Although it was a busy time of the year, we managed to have a great turn out. I hope you are all having a fantastic holiday.

Congratulations tamariki ma for all that you have achieved with HIPPY in 2020!

The most amount of HIPPY Tutors I've ever had at a celebration.
