We have 6 English medium (Auraki) classes catering for tamariki in years 0-8. These are composite classes, usually made up of two year levels (for example – Year 0 and 1 or Year 5 and 6), however on occasion the composition of classes varies, depending on our roll. We teach the New Zealand Curriculum and structured literacy and numeracy programmes are a key part of our daily programmes, often including some elements being delivered through play-based (in the juniors) and project-based (in years 5-8) learning experiences. Like our Rumaki akonga, Hahii-Ringatu is an integral part of the start of our day.
