Recently in Te Puawai Room our tamariki have been growing their physical skills by creating different obstacle courses in the playground. This is a great opportunity to explore and extend current ability's and grow our turn taking skills as we wait for the person in front to complete their task. Our tamariki work together with the help of the kaiako to place the different equipment exactly where they want it, through this we are encouraging teamwork and planning as they creatively design the course.  

Our philosophy at BestStart Glenfield supports the use of open-ended resources and this is a great example of how these can be moved and designed in anyway the tamariki can think of.
