Philosophy

Frederick Street Kindergarten

Whakamana – Empowerment

Our children are confident, competent learners. They learn best when their social, learning and emotional well-being is nurtured with aroha.

Whanaugatanga – Relationships

We recognize and value the responsive, reciprocal relationships we have with our children, whanau, and communities.

Matauranga – Knowledge

We value the unique place of Maori as tangata whenua. Children will have the opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of the cultural heritage of both parties to Te tiriti o Waitangi

Vision

To provide an early childhood education experience that empowers families and creates positive, respectful and reciprocal relationships for all akonga, staff, families and Whänau.
