We aim to provide a high-quality early childhood education in a safe and secure
environment so that children can develop holistically at their own pace. It can be attainable by
increasing participation, engaging parents, tamariki and the community. We believe that by
developing a responsive and reciprocal relationship between parents, whanau, teachers, and staff of
Little Climbers, we can provide an inclusive environment where children have rights to protection
and promotion of their health and wellbeing, to equitable access to learning opportunities, to
recognition of their language, culture, and identity and increasingly, to agency in their own lives.
The curriculum delivered by our qualified and trained ECE teachers and Educators is of a consistent high standard which complements and implements the New Zealand early childhood education curriculum. Our curriculum is based on the interests and the needs of our children. We work together with the child’s family to plan, implement, and evaluate an individual program for each child, so that each child has their individual Development Plan.
Our curriculum at Little Climbers does all the following and More:-
Little Climbers provides a Child Learning Journey Portfolio to all our children where our curriculum assessments and planning is documented. Parents and whānau are encouraged to be involved in the process every time a new programme plan is written for their child, with contributions to their Child Learning Journey Portfolios.
Check out your child’s learning journey online through Educa, where you get 24/7 access to view your child’s progress.
