View on mapKua mahi ngātahi Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, ngā whānau, ngā kaiārahi, ngā kaimahi me ngā hapori ki te whakawhanake i ngā tirohanga aromātai e whai wāhi nui ai ki te hāpai i te kawenga takohanga me te whakapaitanga, ki te tautuhi i te ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakapakari ake hoki i te āheinga ki te aromātai. Ka whakarato ngā pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i ngā mōhiohio mātuatua mā ngā hapū me ngā iwi.
“Pūtikitia Te Aroha, Pūtikitia Te Mita, Pūtikitia Te Reo o Whanganui e”
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Pūtiki Wharanui ki Whanganui, ki te marae o Pūtiki, e pā tata atu ana i te awa o Whanganui. Kei te pā tata hoki te kōhanga reo ki Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi. Ka noho te nuinga o te whānau ki te hapori nei, ā, he hononga ō rātou ki te hapū me te iwi.
I kitea ki te aromātai Mana Whakahaere a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i te Hui-tanguru o tau 2022, te pai o te whakahaeretanga o ngā whakaritenga i te kōhanga reo, ā, i te āta hāpaitia te whakatutukitanga o ngā kaimahi i ō rātou tūranga. Ko te waiora o ngā mokopuna, ā rātou akoranga, me te whakatupu tonu, te whakatairanga tonu, kei te pūtake o ngā whakataunga.
E whai painga ana, e whai pūtake ana hoki ngā hononga me ngā taunekeneke a ngā mokopuna ki ngā pakeke, ā, ki waenga hoki i a rātou anō.
E rumakina ana ngā mokopuna ki te whanaungatanga. Ka āta whakarite ngā kaimahi, kia poipoi, kia whai manaaki hoki ngā taunekeneke katoa ki waenga i ngā pakeke me ngā mokopuna. He mārie te āta mahi ngātahi a ngā kaimahi me ngā mokopuna. He ngāwari te reo atawhai o ngā kaimahi i a rātou e kōrero ana ki ngā mokopuna. Ka tino mōhio ngā kaimahi ki ā rātou mokopuna, ā, ka āta poipoi i ō rātou matea ake. Ka whakamihi rātou i ngā mokopuna mō ā rātou whakamātau, me ā rātou mahi angitu i ia te wā. Kei te harikoa, kei te mauritau hoki ngā mokopuna, ā, ka ngākau nui rātou ki te noho tahi me ō rātou hoa.
Ka noho mātua rā te whakapapa ki ngā whakaritenga a ngā kaimahi me te whānau. E hāpaitia ana te taki a ngā mokopuna i ō rātou pepeha. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i taua mahi hei hāpai i te ako a ngā mokopuna i a rātou anō, i tō rātou tūrangawaewae hoki, kia tū kaha ai rātou nā tō rātou tuakiri me tō rātou hononga pūmau ki a Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi. Ka ako ngā mokopuna i ō rātou tātai whakapapa.
Ka whai wāhi atu ngā mokopuna ki ngā wheako me ngā taumahi e whakaongaonga ana i ō rātou ngākau nuitanga me ā rātou akoranga. He muramura, he rāhiri hoki te āhua o te taiao ako o roto. He māmā noa ki ngā mokopuna te whakapā atu ki te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo rauemi. Ka akiaki te wāhi o waho i te tūhura haere, ā, ka hāpai i ngā mokopuna ki te taunekeneke me te mahi tahi ki te taha o ētahi atu. E whanake ana ngā mokopuna i ngā uara o te manaaki, te aroha, me te tiaki, hei poipoi i a rātou anō, i ētahi atu hoki.
Ko ngā take i tautuhia ai ki te pūrongo o mua a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga mō ngā tuhinga kaimahi me ngā rēhita, i arowhaingia i te wā o te aromātai ki te kōhanga reo. Kei te rawaka ngā pūnaha mō te whakahaeretanga o ngā whakaritenga i te kōhanga reo. He mea nui i nāianei, kia whakapakari tonu te whānau i ngā whakaritenga aromātai o roto, hei mahi matua ka whai ake.
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, arā, ki:
te haumaru ā-whatumanawa, tae atu ki te ārahi mauritau me te ārai tamariki
te haumaru ā-tinana, tae atu ki te mātakitaki tamariki, ngā whakaritenga whakamoe, ngā aituā, te whāngai rongoā; me ngā kaupapa here, ngā tukanga hoki mō ngā haerenga whakawaho
te tū tika o ngā kaimahi, tae atu ki te tika o ngā tohu mātauranga, ngā mahi arowhai a ngā pirihimana, me te tatauranga ki waenga i te kaiako me te tamaiti
ngā whakaritenga ohotata me ngā tikanga ohotata e pā ana ki te rū whenua, te ahi, te waipuke, te tai āniwhaniwha, me te mate urutā.
I whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo te taunakitanga e whai ake nei, arā, kia:
whakapakari tonu te whānau i te aromātai o roto, kia haere tonu ai te whakaratonga o ngā putanga whai hua ki ngā mokopuna.

Arotake Mātauranga – Mana Whakahaere, |
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. ERO’s reports provide important information for hapū and iwi.
“Pūtikitia Te Aroha, Pūtikitia Te Mita, Pūtikitia Te Reo o Whanganui e”
Te Kōhanga Reo o Pūtiki Wharanui is in Whanganui on Te Marae o Pūtiki which is close to the Whanganui River. The kōhanga reo is situated near to Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Atihaunui-ā-Pāpārangi. Most of the whānau live nearby and have connections to the hapū and iwi.
The ERO February 2022 evaluation of Mana Whakahaere practices found kōhanga operations were being managed well and kaimahi were supported to carry out their roles. Mokopuna wellbeing, learning and continual growth and improvement was the focus of decision making.
Mokopuna have positive, meaningful relationships and interactions with adults and each other.
Mokopuna are immersed in whanaungatanga. Kaimahi ensure all interactions between adults and mokopuna are nurturing and caring. Kaimahi work with mokopuna in a calm, unrushed manner. The tone and way kaimahi talk with mokopuna is gentle and affectionate. Kaimahi know their mokopuna well and cater to their specific needs. Mokopuna are often praised for their efforts and achievements. Mokopuna are happy, settled and enjoy the company of their peers.
Whakapapa is integral to kaimahi and whānau practices. Mokopuna are supported to recite their pepeha. Kaimahi use this as a strategy to assist mokopuna to learn about who they are and where they are from, so they are secure in their identity and connection to Te Atihaunui ā Pāpārangi. Mokopuna learn about their whakapapa connections.
Mokopuna engage in experiences and activities that stimulate their interests and learning. The indoor learning environment is colourful and inviting. Mokopuna can easily access a range of resources. The outdoor area encourages exploration and allows mokopuna to interact and cooperate with each other. Mokopuna are developing values of manaaki, aroha and tiaki for self and others.
Matters identified in ERO’s previous report relating to personnel documentation and registers were verified during the onsite visit. There are sufficient systems in place to manage the kōhanga reo operations. It is now important that whānau continue to build internal evaluation practices as a key next step.
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:
the whānau continue to strengthen internal evaluation to further provide positive outcomes for mokopuna.

Kua mahi ngātahi Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, ngā whānau, ngā kaiārahi, ngā kaimahi me ngā hapori ki te whakawhanake i ngā tirohanga aromātai e whai wāhi nui ai ki te hāpai i te kawenga takohanga me te whakapaitanga, ki te tautuhi i te ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakapakari ake hoki i te āheinga ki te aromātai. E hāngai ana tēnei pūrongo ki ā rātou pūnaha, ki ā rātou whakaritenga, me ā rātou mahi whakahaere. 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 Pūtiki Wharanui ki Whanganui, ki te marae o Pūtiki e tū pā tata atu ana i te awa o Whanganui. E tū tata ana hoki ki Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi. Kei pahaki hoki te nuinga o te whānau e noho ana, ā, he tino hononga ki ngā hapū me te iwi.
E whakarato ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Pūtiki Wharanui i tētahi taiao e poipoi ana i te whanaungatanga.
Ko te whanaungatanga te tūāpapa mō te āhua o ngā mahi whakahaere ki te kōhanga reo. He tukanga ā te whānau mō te whakaritenga o ngā whakahaeretanga. He pai te taetae atu ki ngā hui ā-whānau, ka tuhia, ā, ka whai pūtake hoki. Hui ai rātou i ia marama ki te whakawhiti kōrero mō ngā take e whai pānga ana, ā, ki te whakatau anō hoki i ngā whakaritenga matua. He huringa taiāwhio auau tā te whānau mō te arotakenga o ngā kaupapa here me ngā tukanga.
Ka whakamōhiotia te mahere rautaki a te whānau ki ngā mātāpono o “Tupua Te Kawa” me ngā rautaki mātauranga a ngā iwi o Whanganui. Kua āta whakaraupapahia ngā kaupapa matua o te pae tawhiti me te pae tata ki tā rātou mahere rautaki. He aronga nui ki te whakapūmau i ngā mātauranga e noho whakahirahira ana ki ngā whakapapa o Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi. Kei te mahere mahi ngā rauemi e hiahiatia ana, ngā rārangi wā, me ngā pūrongo, hei āta whakatau i te rōnakitanga ā te pae tawhiti. E poipoia ana te waiora me te aronga toi whenuatanga o ngā mokopuna.
E pou herea ana te mahi whakamahere, te aromatawai, me te aromātai hōtaka ki ngā uara o te whanaungatanga. E poipoi ana ngā wheako ako me ngā taumahi i te māramatanga o ngā mokopuna ki ngā whakapapa, ngā pepeha, me te ao Māori. Ka whakamaheretia hoki ngā haerenga ki ngā wāhi whakahirahira o te iwi. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i te tangongitanga o ngā tūmomo huarahi aromatawai e whai pānga ana ki te ako me te ahu whakamua a ngā mokopuna. Ka whakahāngaitia hoki aua tūāhuatanga ki tēnā e noho mātuatua ana i roto i ngā mōhiotanga me ngā māramatanga o ngā mokopuna ki a rātou anō, ā, ki tō rātou ūkaipō hoki. Ka whakamōhiotia te whānau ki te āhua o te ahu whakamua a ā rātou mokopuna. Kua whakatakotohia ngā tukanga aromātai hōtaka, ā, ka tāutu ēnei i ngā whakapaitanga ki te kounga o te hōtaka akoranga. Ka whakaaro huritao ngā kaimahi ki ngā whakaritenga, hei whakatutuki haere i ngā whakarerekētanga e whai hua ana, e aro nui ana hoki ki ngā matea o ngā mokopuna.
Kāhore i te mārama ngā take e pā ana ki ngā tuhinga kaimahi. Kua whakaae ngātahitia e te whānau me Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga kia whakaatuhia aua tuhinga hei te wā ka tae ā-tinana atu te rōpū arotake.
Ahakoa he kaupapa here, he tukanga, he huringa taiāwhio arotake hoki ā te whānau, ka whakatūturuhia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga te whānuitanga o te whakatinanatanga o aua tūāhuatanga, mā te tautohu i ngā rēhita e pā ana ki te hauora me te haumaru.
I te wā o te arotake, i tirohia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga ngā pūnaha ki te whakahaere i ngā wāhanga e whai ake nei, arā, ki:
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 (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 Pūtiki Wharanui is in Whanganui on Te Marae o Pūtiki which is close to the Whanganui River. The kōhanga reo is situated near to Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Te Atihaunui-ā-Pāpārangi. Most of the whānau live nearby and have connections to the hapū and iwi.
How well do mokopuna express whanaungatanga?
Te Kōhanga Reo o Pūtiki Wharanui provides an environment that nurtures whanaungatanga.
Whanaungatanga provides the foundation for the way in which the kōhanga reo is managed. Whānau have processes in place for the administration of operations. Whānau hui are well attended, recorded and purposeful. They meet monthly to discuss matters of interest and to make informed decisions. Whānau have in place a regular cycle for policy and procedure review.
The whānau strategic plan is informed by the principles of “Tupua Te Kawa” and Whanganui Iwi Education strategies. Long and short-term priorities are clearly outlined in their strategic plan. There is a strong emphasis on maintaining mātauranga that is significant to the whakapapa of Te Atihaunui-ā-Pāpārangi. The action plan includes resource requirements, timeframes and reporting to ensure sustainability for the future. Mokopuna wellbeing and belonging is nurtured.
Planning, assessment, and programme evaluation is underpinned by values of whanaungatanga. Learning experiences and activities nurture mokopuna understanding of whakapapa, pepeha and Te Ao Māori. Visits to places of iwi significance are also planned for. Kaimahi use a range of assessment methods that reflect mokopuna learning and progress. These are linked to what is important to mokopuna knowledge and understanding of who they are and where they belong. Whānau are informed of how their mokopuna are progressing. Programme evaluation processes are in place and identify improvement to the quality of the learning programme. Kaimahi reflect on practice to make positive changes and respond to mokopuna needs.
Matters related to personnel documentation were not provided. Whānau and ERO have agreed that documentation will be available for the onsite visit.
While the whānau has in place policies and procedures and a review cycle, ERO will verify the extent to which these give effect through sighting the health and safety registers.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
