Room Details
The Kiwi tamariki 2 - 3 years are empowered to continue their self-discovery of independence, with Kaiako who support and guide their challenges cheering them on and reminding them of just how capable they are. Teachers help navigate the tricky moments in friendships and celebrate the blossoming bonds alongside children creating social foundations. A space of self-discovery.
