View on mapKua mahi ngātahi Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, ngā whānau, ngā kaiārahi, me ngā hapori ki te whakatakoto i ngā tirohanga aromātai e whai wāhi nui ai ki te hāpai i ngā whakapaitanga, ki te tautuhi i te ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakapakari ake hoki i te āheinga ki te aromātai.
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango ki Te Puke. Ka whakawhiti atu te nuinga o ngā manu pīrere ki Te Kura o Te Matai, e pā tata atu ana. He tātai whakapapa tō ngā whānau tokomaha ki a Tapuika.
He ngākau titikaha ō ngā mokopuna, ā, ka ako rātou ki tētahi taiao ako e hāpai ana i a rātou.
Ka whakakoia, ka whakamanahia hoki te tuakiri o ngā mokopuna me ō rātou hononga ā-whānau. Ka ako ngā mokopuna i ngā tikanga o Tapuika, me ā rātou hītori, ō rātou whenua, me ō rātou tīpuna. Ka tuhia aua wheako, ā, e noho wātea ana hei tirohanga. E whanake ana ngā mokopuna i tō rātou māramatanga ki a rātou anō, ki tō rātou tūrangawaewae hoki.
Ka rongo ngā mokopuna i ngā hua o ngā taunekeneke me te whakawhanaungatanga ki te taha o ētahi atu. Ka whakatauira ngā kaimahi i te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo. Ka kitea ngā uara o te awhi me te aroha ki ngā taunekeneke i waenga i ngā kaimahi me ngā mokopuna. He pārekareka ki ngā mokopuna te āwhina. Ka whakamihia ā rātou whakamātau, ā, ka pupū ake te ngahau ki waenga i a rātou anō. Kei te whai wāhi mātātoa te whānau ki ngā taumahi ako. Kei te whakawhanake ngā mokopuna i ngā hononga mauroa ki waenga i a rātou anō, ā, ki te whānau hoki.
Kei te kaha haere te aro nui atu o ngā kaimahi ki ngā wawata o te whānau. He whai wāhitanga ki te whakawhiti kōrero ki te whānau, mō ngā huarahi e hāpai ai i ngā pūmanawa me ngā ngākau nuitanga o ia mokopuna. Ka pūrongo ngā kaimahi i ētahi āhuatanga o ngā akoranga a ngā mokopuna. Ka whai hua ngā mokopuna nā te kaha ū o ngā kaiako ki te mahi ngātahi me te whānau.
E arotahi ana ngā kaimahi ki ngā whakahaeretanga o ia rā ki te kōhanga reo. Hui ai rātou i ia te wā ki te whakawhiti kōrero mō ngā take whakahaere. Ka noho matua rā, ko te hauora, te haumaru, me te whai oranga hoki o ngā mokopuna. Whakatūngia ai e ngā kaimahi i ia tau tētahi wānanga, ki te whakawhiti kōrero e arotake ai i ngā kaupapa here. E mōhio ana rātou, e tika ana kia whakatinanahia tētahi huringa taiāwhio e arotake auau ai i ngā kaupapa here.
Me whakapakari i ētahi āhuatanga o ngā whakaritenga whakaako. Kāhore ngā mahere e whakahāngaitia ana ki tēnā me tēnā o ngā rōpū reanga, ā, kāhore i te rawaka ngā kiko kōrero e tuhia ana, e whakahonotia ana rānei ki ngā mahere ka whai ake. Ko te whakapai ake i aua āhuatanga o te whakaako me te ako ka whakatairanga ake i ngā tino putanga e whai hua ana ki ngā mokopuna.
Kua tae ki te wā kia whakawhanakehia e te whānau tētahi mahere mahi e whakatutuki ai i ngā kaupapa matua i te mahere rautaki. Me whai wāhi atu hoki ki taua mahere, ko tēnā me tēnā o ngā mahi, ngā kawenga, me ngā rārangi wā kia tutuki ai.
I te wā o te aromātai, i tirohia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga ngā pūnaha ki te whakahaere i ngā wāhanga e whai ake nei:
I whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo te taunakitanga e whai ake nei, arā, kia:

The Education Review Office, whānau, leaders and communities have collaborated to provide evaluation insights that foster improvement, identify progress and build evaluation capability.
Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango is located in Te Puke. Most graduates transition to the nearby kura, Te Kura o Te Matai. Many whānau whakapapa to Tapuika.
Mokopuna are confident and learn in a supportive learning environment.
Mokopuna identity and whānau connections are affirmed and recognised. Mokopuna learn about their Tapuika tikanga, history, whenua and tipuna. These experiences are documented, accessible and visible. Mokopuna are developing an understanding of who they are and where they come from.
Mokopuna experience positive interactions and relationships with others. Kaimahi model the kōhanga kaupapa. The values of awhi and aroha are evident in interactions between kaimahi and mokopuna. Mokopuna enjoy being helpful. They are praised for their efforts and have fun with one another. Whānau are actively involved in learning activities. Mokopuna are developing lasting relationships with each other and the whānau.
Kaimahi are increasingly responding to the aspirations of whānau. There are opportunities to discuss with whānau how to cater for the strengths and interests of each mokopuna. Kaimahi report some aspects of mokopuna learning. Mokopuna benefit from kaiako who are committed to working alongside whānau.
Kaimahi are focused on the day-to-day management of the kōhanga. They meet regularly to discuss operational matters. The health, safety and wellbeing of mokopuna are prioritised. Kaimahi hold annual wānanga to discuss policy review. They are aware of the need to implement a regular policy review cycle.
Aspects of teaching practice requires strengthening. Planning is not differentiated for age groups and the progress and learning of mokopuna is not sufficiently detailed or documented. Programme evaluations are discussed but not documented or linked to future planning. Improving these aspects of teaching and learning should further promote positive outcomes for mokopuna.
It is timely for the whānau to develop and action plan to achieve the strategic plan priorities. This should include specific actions, responsibilities and time frames for completion.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation:

Ka whakahaeretia tētahi arotake tāpiri i runga o te whakataunga a te Kaitiriwā Toihau Arotake Māori i Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga.
E aromātai ana te arotake tāpiri i te whānuitanga me te whai hua o ngā mahi a te kōhanga reo ki te whakatutuki i ngā take i whakatakotohia ai i roto i te arotake mātauranga o mua atu i tēnei, me ētahi atu wāhanga rānei kua tāutuhia whai muri o taua arotake.
Ko tēnei arotake tāpiri i whakaritea i runga o te aromātai o te whakatutukitanga a te whānau i te whakahaeretanga o te kōhanga reo, ki ngā wāhanga i tāutuhia ai e te pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, i mua atu, me ngā take rānei kua tāutuhia whai muri o taua arotake. Ko ngā whakataunga mō ngā whakapuakitanga e pā ana ki tēnei arotake, ko te titiro ki:
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango ki te taha o Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Matai, i Te Puke. Ko te nuinga o ngā tamariki ka puta i te kōhanga reo, ka whakawhiti atu ki tēnei kura. Kei te kaha tautoko te whānau i te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo. He tino tauira ngā kaiako hou me ngā kaiāwhina i te reo Māori. Ka mahi rātou ki te whānau, ki te āta whakarite i te whai pānga o te waiora o ngā tamariki ki ngā whakataunga.
Mai i te pūrongo o mua a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, i te tau 2015, kua whakapau kaha te whānau ki te whakatutuki i ngā take āwangawanga i tāutuhia ai.
Kua ahu whakamua rātou i roto i te hōtaka akoranga, me te hauora, te haumaru hoki o ngā tamariki. Kua whakatutukihia te aromātai o roto me ngā āhuatanga i whai pānga ai ki ngā herenga ā-ture.
He pēhea rawa te poipoi i te haumaru me te waiora o ngā tamariki hei ākonga?
Ko te haumaru me te waiora o ngā tamariki, me tā rātou ako, e noho matua ana ki te kōhanga reo.
He pārekareka ki ngā tamariki a rātou taumahi ako. Ka whakarato ngā kaimahi i ngā whai wāhitanga mō ngā tamariki ki te whakatau i a rātou ake whiringa me te kōkiri i ngā taumahi ako mā te whakamahi anō hoki i ngā rauemi e noho wātea ana ki a rātou. Kua whakaritea ngā taumahi kia āhei ai ngā tamariki ki te tūhura, te hīraurau hopanga, me te ako mā ō rātou wheako. Ka mahi ngātahi ngā tamariki ki te taha o ētahi atu. Ka whai wāhi atu rātou, ka arotahi anō hoki rātou i roto i ngā akoranga. Ka whakarite ngā kaimahi i te hōtaka o ia rā kia nui ngā wā harikoa me ngā wā mārie mō ngā tamariki. Kua waia ngā tamariki ki ngā mahinga o ia rā. Kei te mārama rātou ki te whanonga e tūmanakohia ana, puta noa i te hōtaka akoranga. Ka tūmāia ngā tamariki hei ākonga e kōkiri ana i ā rātou akoranga.
E tino tautokona ana ngā tamariki kia whanake ai tō rātou mātau ki te reo Māori. Ka ako ngā tamariki mā ngā taumahi ako i whakatakotohia ai, i whakaōkawatia ai hoki. E āhei ana ngā tamariki tuākana ki te taki i ō rātou pepeha, i ngā karakia, ā, i ngā mihimihi hoki. Ka kitea te māramatanga o ngā tamariki tēina, nā te tika o ā rātou nekehanga i roto i ngā waiata. Ka whakarato ngā taumahi ako i te hāngaitanga me te tika o ngā tauira reo mā ngā tamariki. Ka akiaki ngā kaimahi i ngā tamariki ki te whakaoti i ngā kīanga mō te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo taumahi reo. E whanake ana ngā tamariki hei ākonga pakari o te reo Māori.
Kua whakaritea ngā kaupapa here me ngā tukanga e pā ana ki te hauora me te haumaru. Ka whakatū te kōhanga reo i ngā kaimahi i runga anō i te tatauranga e tika ana ki waenga i te kaimahi me te tamaiti, hei āta whakatau i te mātakina o ngā tamariki. Ka whāia ngā pūnaha aroturuki e tika ana mō:
E noho pūmau ana te whānau ki te hauora, ki te haumaru, me te waiora o ā rātou tamariki. He haumaru te taiao ako o ngā tamariki.
Kua whakatutukihia ētahi o ngā mahi ki te arotake i ngā kaupapa here. Kua whakaritea ngā tukanga e pā ana ki te whakamahere me te aromatawai. He matawhānui ngā mahere, ā, ka ārahi i te hōtaka akoranga. Hui ai ngā kaimahi i ia te wā ki te whakamahere me te whakawhiti kōrero mō te hōtaka akoranga. E ākina ana te whānau kia whai wāhi atu, kia whakapuaki whakaaro hoki ki roto i te hōtaka akoranga. Ka aroturukitia te ako a ngā tamariki, ā, he rite tonu te pūrongotanga.
Kua whakaritea tētahi mahere rautaki. Ka whakamahia ngā mōhiohio aromātai o roto hei hāpai i te whakawhanaketanga o te mahere rautaki a te whānau. Ka ārahi te angamahi o Te Ara Tūāpae i te tāutu a te whānau i ngā whāinga matua me ngā kaupapa matua. He tūturu tonu ngā kaupapa matua a te whānau mō te paetawhiti, ā, e hāngai ana, e whai whakaaro nui ana hoki ki te rōnakitanga o te kōhanga reo mō meāke nei. Kua whakaritea tētahi mahere mahi hei tāutu i ngā tāngata, ngā rauemi, me ngā wā mahi ki te aroturuki me te aru i te ahu whakamua, kia tutukihia ai ngā kaupapa matua a te whānau. Ko ngā tamariki kei te pūtake o ngā mahere mō anamata.
Ahakoa kua pai ake te whakamahere i te hōtaka, ko te aromātai hōtaka tētahi wāhanga hei whakawhanake tonu. Ka hui ngā kaimahi, ā, ka whakawhiti kōrero rātou mō ngā whakarerekētanga ki te hōtaka akoranga, engari kāhore ēnei e tuhia ana. Ko ngā mōhiohio ka ahu mai i te aromātai hōtaka ka āta whakarite i te tāutu o ngā ngākaunuitanga, ngā pūmanawa, me ngā matea ako o ngā tamariki.
I tāutu te arotake o mua i te maha o ngā wāhanga kāhore e tutuki ana e ai ki ngā ture. Kāhore aua āwangawangatanga ināianei. Kei te mōhio te kaiwhakahaere ki ngā herenga ā-ture katoa me ngā paearu e pā ana ki te raihana. Kua whakamahia e te whānau ngā rauemi a te kaupapa kaimahi ā-rohe, hei hāpai i tā rātou whakapai ake i ngā whakahaeretanga i roto i te kōhanga reo.
I whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo ngā taunakitanga e whai ake nei, arā, kia:
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango ki te taha o Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Matai, i Te Puke. Ko te haumaru me te waiora o ngā tamariki, me tā rātou ako, e noho matua ana ki te kōhanga reo. Kua whakapau kaha te whānau ki te whakapai ake i te hōtaka akoranga me te whānuitanga o ngā mahi whakahaere ki te kōhanga reo. Ko ngā take i hāngai ki te hauora me te haumaru o ngā tamariki, kua whakatutukihia i nāianei.
Ka arotake anō Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango i roto i te toru o ngā tau.

A supplementary review is undertaken at the discretion of the Deputy Chief Review Officer Māori in the Education Review Office (ERO).
A supplementary review evaluates the extent and effectiveness of actions a kōhanga reo has taken towards addressing issues specified in its previous ERO review and/or any additional areas identified since that review.
This supplementary review is based on an evaluation of the performance of the kōhanga reo governing body and management in relation to areas identified in the previous ERO report or issues identified since that review. The terms of reference for this review are to investigate:
Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango is next to Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Mātai in Te Puke. Most graduates of the kōhanga reo attend the kura. Whānau support is strong for the kaupapa of the kōhanga reo. New kaiako and kaiawhina are models of te reo Māori. They work with the whānau to ensure children’s wellbeing informs decision making.
Since the last ERO Report 2015 the whānau have worked to address the identified areas of concern.
Progress in the learning programme, children’s health and safety. Internal evaluation and non-compliance have been addressed.
How well are children's safety and well-being as learners nurtures?
Children’s safety, wellbeing and learning is a priority in the kōhanga reo.
Children enjoy their learning activities. Kaimahi provide children with opportunities to make choices and initiate learning activities using available resources. Activities are organised to enable children to explore, solve problems and learn from their experiences. Children work co-operatively with others. They are engaged and focussed on learning. Kaimahi organise the daily programme for children to have periods of happiness and calm. Children are familiar with daily routines. They understand expected behaviours throughout the learning programme. Children are confident, independent learners.
Children are well supported to develop their knowledge of te reo Māori. Children learn through structured and formal learning activities. Older children are able to recite their pepeha, karakia and mihimihi. Younger children show their understanding by doing the appropriate actions to waiata. Language activities provide children with accurate and appropriate language patterns. Kaimahi prompt children to complete phrases for a variety of language activities. Children are developing as confident speakers of te reo Māori.
Health and safety policies and procedures are in place. The kōhanga reo is staffed to meet regulatory ratio criteria to ensure children are well supervised. Regulatory monitoring systems are followed for:
Whānau are committed to the health, safety and well-being of their children. Children are in a safe learning environment.
Some policy reviews have been carried out. Planning and assessment processes are in place. Planning is comprehensive and guides the learning programme. Kaimahi meet regularly to plan and discuss the learning programme. Whānau are encouraged to participate and contribute to the learning programme. Children’s learning is monitored and regularly reported.
A strategic plan is in place. Internal evaluation information was used to support the development of the whānau strategic plan. The Te Ara Tūāpae framework guides whānau to identify key goals and priorities. Whānau long term priorities are realistic, relevant and consider the long term sustainability of the kōhanga reo. An action plan is in place to identify people, resources and timeframes to monitor and track the progress in order to meet whānau priorities. Children are at the heart of future planning.
Although programme planning has improved, programme evaluation is still an area for development. Kaimahi meet and discuss changes to the learning programme, however these are not recorded. Programme evaluation information will ensure children’s interests, strengths and learning needs are clearly identified.
The last review identified a number of areas of non-compliance. These are no longer areas of concern. The kaiwhakahaere is familiar with all licensing regulations and criteria. The whanau have utilised the resources of the District Kaupapa Kaimahi to support them in improving operations within the kōhanga reo.
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendations:
Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango is next to Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Matai in Te Puke. Children’s safety, wellbeing and learning is a priority in the kōhanga reo. The whānau have worked to improve the learning programme and overall management of the kōhanga reo. Issues regarding children’s health and safety are no longer a concern.
The next ERO review of Te Kōhanga Reo o Ōtūpango will be in three years.
