Ka whakarato ngā pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i ngā mōhiohio mātuatua mā ngā hapū me ngā iwi.
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Hono ki Kōkiri ki Wainuiōmata. He tino hononga ō te whānau ki Te Kōhanga Reo o Kōkiri Marae me Te Kōhanga Reo o Paparākau. He kaha hoki ngā hononga i te hapori e hāpai ai i ngā whānau katoa, puta noa i ngā umanga maha. He pai te whakahaeretanga o te kōhanga reo, ā, e hāpaitia ana te whakatutukitanga o ngā kaimahi i ō rātou tūranga me ā rātou kawenga.
Ka whai wāhi nui ngā mokopuna, ā, ka kitea tō rātou ngākau nuitanga, i a rātou e ako ana.
Ka whakaratohia ngā whai wāhitanga mō ngā mokopuna ki te uru atu ki te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo wheako ako. Ka mahi ngātahi ngā kaimahi ki te whakarato i tētahi hōtaka e whai hanganga ana, e whai whiringa ana, ā, e noho ngohengohe ana hoki. Ka arohaina, ka āta manaakitia hoki ngā mokopuna e ngā kaimahi, ā, he mārie, he ngāwari hoki ō rātou reo kōrero ki ngā tamariki. Ka whakarato ngā kaimahi i te tangongitanga o ngā taumahi whakangahau, ā, he pārekareka ki ngā mokopuna. Ka āta whakamahi rātou i ngā pao me ngā rautaki reo e tika ana, hei hāpai i te whakawhanaketanga reo o ngā mokopuna. Ko ētahi o aua rautaki, ko te pātai, ko te whāngai kupu, ko te tāruarua hoki. Kei te harikoa ngā mokopuna i a rātou e tākaro ana, e ako ana, ā, e kōrero ana hoki.
E ako ana ngā mokopuna i ō rātou pepeha, ā, ka taea e rātou ō rātou pepeha te taki. Ka hāpai taua whakaritenga i te whakapūmautanga o ngā hononga o ngā mokopuna ki ō rātou tūrangawaewae. E tino hāpaitia te whai wāhi atu a ngā pēpi ki te hōtaka akoranga. Whakamihi ai ngā kaimahi i ngā mokopuna i ngā wā katoa, mō tā rātou whai wāhi atu me ā rātou whakatutukitanga. He pai te whakaritenga o te taiao ako, hei whakatutuki i ngā matea o ngā tūmomo rōpū reanga. E wātea ana ngā rauemi ki ngā mokopuna, kia āhei ai rātou ki te whakatau i te āhua tonu o ā rātou tākaro, me te whai i ō rātou ake ngākau nuitanga. Kei te mauritau, kei te harikoa hoki te āhua o ngā mokopuna.
Ko te whanaungatanga kei te pūtake o te tupu o te kōhanga reo. Kua uru atu ngā kaimahi ki ngā akoranga a Te Poari Matua o Ngā Kōhanga Reo. Ka whakaratohia te tautoko o waho hei whakawhanake tonu i ngā mōhiotanga me ngā pūkenga o ngā kaimahi, hei mātanga whai hua. He kaupapa nui tonu tēnei, hei hāpai i ngā kaimahi ki te whai i ō rātou wawata mō ngā mokopuna.
Kia mahi te whānau ki te taha o ngā kaimahi, ki te whakawhanake me te whakapūmau i tētahi hōtaka ngaio, kia āhei ai rātou ki te whakarato tonu i ngā akoranga e whai pānga nui ana ki ngā mokopuna.

The Education Review Office (ERO) in collaboration with whānau, leaders, kaimahi and their communities develop evaluation insights that foster accountability and improvement, identify progress and build evaluation capability. This report reflects their systems, operations and management practices. ERO reports provide important information for hapū and iwi.
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Hono ki Kōkiri is located in Wainuiomata. Whānau have close connections with Te Kōhanga Reo o Kokiri Marae and Te Kōhanga Reo o Paparakau. There are strong connections within the community to support all whānau across multiple agencies. The operations of the kōhanga reo are well-managed and kaimahi are supported to carry out their roles and responsibilities.
Mokopuna participate and show their enjoyment while they learn.
Mokopuna are provided with opportunities to participate in a range of learning experiences. Kaimahi work collaboratively to provide a programme that provides structure, choice and flexibility. Mokopuna are loved and well cared for by kaimahi who talk in a calm and gentle manner. Kaimahi provide mokopuna with a range of activities that are fun and enjoyable. They are deliberate in their use of pao and appropriate language strategies to support mokopuna language development. These include questions, prompts and repetition. Mokopuna appear happy as they play, learn and speak.
Mokopuna are learning and can recite their pepehā. This helps reinforce mokopuna connections to their turangawaewae. Pēpi are well supported to take part in the learning programme. Kaimahi constantly praise mokopuna for their participation and achievements. The learning environment is organised to meet the needs of different age groups. Resources are available for mokopuna to make decisions about play and follow their interests. Mokopuna appear settled, and happy.
Whanaungatanga is central to the kōhanga growth. Kaimahi are enrolled in Te Kōhanga Reo National Trust courses. External support is provided to further develop kaimahi knowledge and skills to become effective practitioners. This continues to be an important area, to support kaimahi to pursue their aspirations for mokopuna.
Whānau work with kaimahi to develop and maintain a professional programme so that they continue to provide responsive learning for mokopuna.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
emotional safety including positive guidance and child protection
physical safety including supervision, sleep procedures, accidents, medication, excursion policy and procedures
suitable staffing including appropriate qualifications, police vetting, ratios
emergency procedures and practices for earthquakes, fire, flood, tsunami and pandemic.
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation:
that whānau work with kaimahi to develop and maintain a professional programme that supports them to provide responsive learning for mokopuna.

Tāpiri atu ki tēnā, ka hui ngātahi ki ia whānau ki te whakapuaki i te ako a ngā mokopuna me tā rātou ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakatairanga anō hoki i te whai wāhi mai o ngā whānau. Ka whakapuakihia te whakawhanaketanga o ia mokopuna ki ngā whānau mā ngā pūkete. E ākina ana te whakapuaki whakaaro o te whānau ki te hōtaka akoranga me te kōrero urupare.

Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Hono ki Kōkiri is located in Wainuiomata. Kōkiri Marae is the umbrella organisation, established in 1989 under the leadership of Keriana Olsen. A large number of whānau living in Wainuiomata attend Te Kōhanga Reo o Kōkiri Marae. Kōkiri marae provides a number of additional services to support vulnerable whānau in the surrounding communities.
Mokopuna show happiness in their learning through the encouragement and support of kaimahi.
Hui kaimahi are well attended and are held regularly with all three kōhanga reo in attendance. The tūtohinga provides clear direction for the management and operations of the kōhanga reo. There is a regular review of all policies and procedures. These align to current legislation. Strategic planning is informed by Te Ara Tūāpae that define key aspirations. Minutes include reporting about health and safety, including Covid-19, lockdown, and hygiene practices All employee documentation is current and in place. Kaimahi appraisals are complete with an ongoing focus on professional development.
Management and kaimahi use creative ways to involve whānau through the use of social media. Whānau hui are well attended and purposeful. In addition, one on one meetings with whānau are used to share mokopuna learning and progress and to enhance whānau engagement. Individual development of mokopuna is also shared with whānau through their profile books. Whānau are encouraged to contribute to the learning programme and give feedback. Mokopuna observe their whānau and kaiako engaged in purposeful interactions.
Programme planning has purpose and intent and aligns to Te Whāriki, the early childhood curriculum. Aromātai processes and practices are in place. Programme evaluation is evident. Kaimahi use this information to make improvements to the programme. Mokopuna appear happy and settled in a nurturing environment.
Covid-19 has impacted on the ability of kaimahi to participate in Te Kōhanga Reo National Trust professional training and support. ERO supports the view to explore ways to maintain ongoing professional development for kaimahi within the current Covid-19 environment.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
ERO and the kōhanga reo board developed the following recommendation; that the kōhanga reo look at developing additional training opportunities for kaimahi.
