This is a flightless native bird, just like our pepi they are close to the ground exploring from the bottom up. Soon they will develop many skills and achieve many milestones before transitioning to the Tiwaiwaka Room.

Takahe Room Infants
Tiwaiwaka Room 2 - 3 years old
This is also a native bird commonly known as the Fantail. At this age, our tamariki are going to be introduced to many experiences as they flutter/explore this space and gain further skills such as early problem-solving and independence.
Kiwi Room 3 - 4 years old
This bird was once the biggest eagle, it is now extinct but could fly above storms instead of flying away from them. In this space, our tamariki will learn further problem-solving skills to develop positive relationships, well-being, language, and early research. The 3-4-year-old space will build further resilience and persistence supporting this age group to fly above any storm and land safely.
Kea Room4 - 5 year olds
The Kea is full of fun, cheekiness, and character, much like this age group as they express more of who they are, their traits, and personalities whilst preparing for the next journey of school. Building their natural character, independence, and school-ready skills with their peers we believe is important to help them for the world and remain true to themselves.
