Love
Our school is a whānau. We let each member of our whānau know on a daily basis, through words and actions, that they are loved and appreciated.
Our tamariki know their whānau connections, their whakapapa.

Te Ara Piki
Te Ara Piki is a classroom step system to acknowledge good choices, our school values and provide support for negative choices. A visual classroom display will be in every classroom with all tamariki beginning at “Pī Ka Rere” everyday. Teachers and support staff will ‘notice’ deliberate student choices that reflect our school values and will move their tamariki ‘up’ our Ara Piki.
We endeavour to support positive behaviour choices by providing our tamariki with strategies for managing their emotions, language, behaviour and responses to stress and conflict. We use a range of programmes (such as Zones of Regulation) relevant to their age and stage of learning across the school. We strive to be models of positive behaviour for our tamariki.
