Celebrating Special Cultural Events
Over the last while the kahikatea room at BestStart Redwood has been learning about all the different celebrations that our families recognise. Before Christmas we were lucky to have a limited number of family members come and help us celebrate and learn about Diwali.
After this event all our tamariki were getting about excited about the upcoming festive season and were really enjoying learning about all the holidays that come around this time. Now that we have made it into the new year, we have followed on to learn about how Chinese and Korean New Year are different but celebrated at the same time.
With such a busy special events calendar we have also looked at Waitangi Day and are looking to learning about some other cultural events coming up and hopefully will be able to include and share these celebrations with our families soon. With all these exciting events going on we added in an extra holiday week. Where we had a wide range of exciting activities for all our tamariki celebrating the return of them to BestStart Redwood.
