Henwood Kindy Philosophy
We are between Te Mounga Taranaki and te moana.
We are kaitiaki of the land; we respect our living world, people, places and things.
Tamariki and whānau are at the heart of Henwood Kindy.
Through partnership we celebrate uniqueness and our bi-cultural heritage.
We are a community of learners; we embrace the wealth of knowledge and contribution our tamariki, whānau and community share.
The nurturing of our animals, the garden, and sustainable practices are a valuable part of our learning culture. The essence of nature in our environment engages the senses, cultivates curiosity and creates wonderment and discovery.
Our unscripted curriculum supports emergent and enduring interests through intentional teaching and the infinite potential of found resources and loose parts. We believe the child’s imagination is essential for self-expression throughout play and beyond.
At Henwood Kindy, tamariki are empowered in the knowledge they are courageous, capable, and honorable citizens.
