In Nga Kākano, we cater for children aged 3 months to 2.5 years. In this space, we are split into two areas, our Koru Room and our Nest.
The term Koru symbolises new beginnings, nurturing, and personal growth, and we take pride in fostering an environment characterised by Manaakitanga, which creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that instils a sense of belonging from the moment one enters.
In the Nest (Infants Space) and Koru environment, we offer specialised education and care tailored to our younger Tamariki, ensuring that their daily routines and rhythms are honoured.
The foundation of our daily activities is built on the relationships and conversations we maintain with parents and whanau, as we deeply appreciate their contributions, aspirations, culture, language, and identity for all our tamariki, emphasising the importance of whanaungatanga in our collaborative efforts.
We provide a variety of opportunities for Tamariki to explore and experiment through sensory experiences. Our goal is to help all our tamariki cultivate strong, trusting relationships with their Kaiako and peers, while being supported to flourish as individuals.
