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 Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa ki te wāhi ahumahi o Frankton, ki Kirikiriroa. He hononga ā-whakapapa ō te nuinga o ngā mokopuna ki te iwi o te takiwā nei, ā, ki a rātou anō hoki. Nō nā noa nei te whānau whakahaere i whakaritea ai, ā, e mahi ngātahi ana rātou ki te whakapakari ake i te māramatanga ki ō rātou tūranga me ā rātou kawenga mahi.
Ka whai wāhi atu ngā mokopuna ki ngā akoranga e tautāwhi ana, e whāngai ana hoki i a rātou mā te whanaungatanga.
Kei te whiwhi ngā mokopuna i ngā akoranga e whakatairanga ana i te whanaungatanga. Kua pou herea te hōtaka akoranga ki ngā tikanga me ngā kawa, ā, kua tuituia hoki ki ngā whakapono o te Pai Mārire. He āhuatanga tēnei e whakapakari ana i te whai māramatanga o ngā mokopuna ki ō rātou hononga ki Te Kīngitanga. Ka āta whakarite ngā kaimahi i te whai wāhi atu a ngā mokopuna ki ngā whakatau, ā, ka kite, ka rongo hoki rātou i ngā mihimihi ōkawa. Ko te whakapuakitanga o ngā waiata whai pānga, e whakatairanga ana i te mōhiotanga o ngā mokopuna hei uri o Ngāti Māhanga. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i ngā rautaki e tika ana, pērā i te whāngai kupu, te tāruarua, me te whakamihi, hei whakapoutama i te whakawhanaketanga reo o ngā mokopuna. I ngā wā whāriki, ka whakatōpū, ka whakapuaki hoki ngā mokopuna i te māramatanga ki te reo ōkawa, mā roto mai i ngā karakia. Ka whai whakaaro nui ngā tuākana ki te hāpai i ō rātou tēina ki te kōrero i te reo Māori, mā te akiaki, me te āta atawhai. E hāpai ana ngā mahinga i te kōhanga reo i te whakapuaki ōpaki tonu a ngā mokopuna i a rātou anō, ki ngā horopaki tākaro māhorahora. Ka āta whakarite ngā kaimahi kia poipoi, kia tautoko ngā taunekeneke ki waenga i ngā mokopuna me ngā pakeke. E whakawhanake ana ngā mokopuna i tō rātou māramatanga ki a rātou anō, ki tō rātou tūrangawaewae hoki.
Kua whakatakotohia ngā whakaritenga e pā ana ki te whakamahere, te aromatawai, me te aromātai. Ka mahi ngātahi ngā kaimahi ki te whakamahere mō ngā matea ako o ngā mokopuna.

Ka whai wāhi ki ngā mahere, ko ngā kaupapa whānui, ngā kaupapa whāiti, ngā rauemi, ngā kupu hou, me ngā waiata, hei ārahi i te whakatinanatanga a ngā kaimahi i te hōtaka akoranga. Ka kapohia ngā huarahi ako o ngā mokopuna ki ngā kōnae mokopuna. Ka whakamahia ngā mātai mokopuna hei tautuhi i ngā whakaritenga ako ka whai ake. E wātea ana aua tuhinga ki ngā whānau, ā, he kaha tō rātou noho mōhio ki tēnā e ākona ana e ngā mokopuna. Hui ai ngā kaimahi i ia te wā ki te aromātai i te hōtaka akoranga. Ka tuhia ngā whakawhitinga kōrero, ā, ka whai wāhi atu hoki ki ngā whakaritenga mō meāke nei. E whai wāhi nui ana ngā mokopuna ki tētahi hōtaka akoranga e āta whakamaheretia ana, e āta whakahaerehia ana hoki.
E whakahaerehia ana te nuinga o ngā wāhanga whakahaere o te kōhanga reo. E tautuhi ana te tūtohinga i ngā tukanga, ā, e whakatakoto ana i te aronga nahanaha me te huarahi mō te whānau.

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 reports provide important information for hapū and iwi.
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa is located in the industrial area of Frankton, Hamilton. Most mokopuna have whakapapa links to the local iwi and to each other. A newly established whaanau whakahaere are working together to build an understanding of their roles and responsibilities.
Mokopuna experience learning where they are embraced and nurtured through whanaungatanga.
Mokopuna experience learning that promotes whanaungatanga. The learning programme is underpinned by tikanga and kawa and incorporates whakapono Paimaarire. This strengthens mokopuna understanding of their connections to Te Kiingitanga. Kaimahi ensure mokopuna are included in whakatau where they experience formal mihimihi. The use of relevant waiata promotes mokopuna awareness as descendants of Ngaati Mahanga. Kaimahi use appropriate strategies such as prompts, repetition and praise to scaffold mokopuna language development. During waa whaariki, mokopuna consolidate and express an understanding of formal language through karakia. Tuaakana take the initiative to support their teina to speak te reo Maaori through encouragement and showing genuine care. Koohanga routines allow mokopuna to express themselves informally in free play settings. Kaimahi ensure interactions between mokopuna and adults are nurturing and supportive. Mokopuna are developing their understanding of who they are and how they belong.
Planning, assessment and evaluation practices are in place. Kaimahi work collaboratively to plan for mokopuna learning needs. Planning shows clear links to Te Whariki ā Te Kōhanga Reo. This includes kaupapa whaanui, kaupapa whaaiti, resources, kupu hou and waiata to guide kaimahi to implement the learning programme. Mokopuna learning journeys are captured in koonae mokopuna. Maatai mokopuna are used to identify next steps for learning. These are accessible to whānau who are well informed of what mokopuna are learning. Kaimahi meet regularly to evaluate the learning programme. Discussions are documented and informs future planning. Mokopuna enjoy a learning program that is well planned and managed.
Most aspects of koohanga reo operations are managed. The tuutohinga defines processes and sets out a planned approach and direction for whānau. Regular whānau hui are held and well attended. The koohanga reo financial position is monitored and reported. The strategic plan is informed by Te Ara Tuapae and includes the vision and aspirations of the whānau. Strategic priorities and goals focus on extending te reo Maaori capabilities. Emergency evacuations are regularly carried out. An annual plan sets out the overall administrative tasks and when these are to be completed. Personnel management practices support kaimahi growth and development. Kaimahi employment contracts and job descriptions provide clarity of expected responsibilities. Performance appraisals focus on enhancing kaimahi practices. All kaimahi are enrolled on Tupu Ora language course commencing in 2023. Whānau manage the kōhanga reo in the best interest of the mokopuna.
Policies and procedures require attention. A process for reviewing and updating health and safety policies and procedures require implementing. Some key practises do not align with current legislation. Mokopuna health, safety and wellbeing is potentially compromised.
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.
To meet compliance requirements they must:
ensure there is an ongoing process of self-review or internal evaluation to help the kōhanga maintain and improve the quality of its education and care.
[Regulation 46 Education (Early Childhood Services) Regulations 2008; GMA6 Licensing Criteria for Kōhanga Reo affiliated with Te Kōhanga Reo National Trust 2008]
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation:
whānau work alongside the district office for support to address and update health and safety policies.

E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa ki te hapori ahumahi o Frankton, ki Kirikiriroa. Nō waenga i te tau 2017, nō muri mai anō hoki i te katinga o te kōhanga reo mō ngā marama e ono, i whai wāhi atu ai te Poari Matua o Ngā Kōhanga Reo ki te hāpai i ngā mahi whakahaere, ā, ki te ārahi hoki i ngā whānau hou ki te kōhanga reo. E noho hīkaka ana te whānau, ā, e noho ngākau nui ana hoki rātou ki te rōnaki tonutanga o te kaupapa, me te āta whakarite i ngā tino painga mō ngā tamariki.
E whanake ana ngā tamariki i tō rātou māramatanga ki ō rātou hononga ki a Tainui.
E rumakina ana ngā tamariki ki ngā tikanga o Tainui. Ka whakanui ngā kaimahi me ngā tamariki i Te Kīngitanga i ngā wā whāriki i te tīmatanga o ā rātou akoranga o ia rā. He pakari ngā tamariki ki te taki i a rātou ngā ariki i noho ai ki te ahurewa tapu o Te Kīngitanga, ā, he mahi ā-ringa ā rātou e tohu ana i tō rātou māramatanga ki ia ariki. Ka whakaatu ngā kaimahi i ngā whakaahua o Te Kīngitanga, kia mōhio haere ai ngā tamariki ki ngā kanohi me ngā ingoa o aua rangatira. He hononga ā-whakapapa tonu tō te nuinga o ngā tamariki ki a Tainui, ā, ka tūmāia rātou ki te whakapuaki i ō rātou pepeha ki waenga i a rātou anō. Ka tū ngā kaimahi ki te taha o ngā tamariki hei kaikaranga, ā, ka whakamana hoki i tō rātou tuakiri hei uri o Tainui. E whanake ana te tūmāia o ngā tamariki.
Ka rongo ngā tamariki i te whanaungatanga. Ka whakatauira ngā kaimahi me te whānau i te whakaute, te manaaki, me te aroha. He tino rautaki e whakamahia ana e ngā kaimahi, hei whakakoia ki ngā tamariki ō rātou hononga ā-whakapapa ki a Tainui. Ka whakaratohia ngā whai wāhitanga mō ngā tamariki ki te ārahi, kia whanakehia ai tō rātou tū hei kaikarakia, hei kaikaranga hoki mō ō rātou hapū ā tōna wā. Ka whakapuaki ngā kaimahi me te whānau i ngā whai wāhitanga mō ngā tamariki ki te whakawhanaunga ki ngā kaumātua me ngā kuia. Ka āta whakarite ngā kuia kia mauritau ngā pēpi, ā, ka hāpaitia tā rātou whai wāhi atu ki ngā kaupapa ki te taha o ō rātou tuākana. E puāwai ana ngā tuākana hei kaiārahi i roto i ā rātou akoranga me tō rātou tautoko i ngā tēina. He ngāwari ngā taunekeneke ki waenga i ngā tamariki. He pai te ārahi i te ako a ngā tamariki, ā, ka kaha whakanui anō hoki i ā rātou whakamātau. Ka whakarite ngā kaimahi i ngā tūmanako mārama, ā, ka āta whakahāngai ake anō i te titiro o ngā tamariki i ngā wā e tika ana. Kei te harikoa, kei te mauritau hoki ngā tamariki i tō rātou kōhanga reo.
Ka ākina te whakamahinga a ngā tamariki i te reo Māori. Ka kōrero ngā kuia ki ngā pēpi, ā, ka whāngai rātou i te tino taumata o te reo Māori ki a rātou. Ka kitea te māramatanga o ngā pēpi mā te āhua o ō rātou kanohi me te reo ā-tinana. He pakari te whai a ngā tamariki i ngā tohutohu, ā, he tika anō hoki ā rātou whakautu. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i ngā rautaki reo e whakawhānui ana i ngā pūkenga whakaaro o ngā tamariki tuākana. Ko ētahi o aua rautaki, ko te patapatai, ko te āta mahi i ngā tū hapa, ko te tāruarua, te whakatauira, me ngā taumahi ngahau. Kei te mārama ngā tamariki tuākana ki ngā pātai whānui, ā, he pārekareka hoki ki a rātou te whakautu kōrero. E hāpaitia ana rātou ki te āta whakapuaki mārika i ō rātou whakaaro ki ētahi atu i ngā wā ako ōkawa. E hāpaitia ana ngā tamariki e ngā kaimahi ki te ārahi i ngā karakia o te Pai Mārire e whai pānga nui ana ki a Tainui. E whakaatuhia ana ngā waiata o te Tainui ki ngā pakitara. Ka rongo ngā tamariki i ngā kīwaha me te mita o Tainui i te reo irirangi e whakapaoho māika ana, tuarongo ana hoki puta noa i te rā. E whakawhanake ana ngā tamariki i ngā pūkenga ki te āta whakawhitiwhiti whakaaro mā te reo Māori.
Ka whai wāhi atu ngā tamariki ki tētahi taiao e poipoi ana i ō rātou matea ako. Ka whakarato ngā kaimahi i ngā taumahi i āta whakamaheretia ai kia whai wāhi nui mai ai ngā tamariki. Ka āta kapo atu i ngā whai wāhitanga maha e pupū ake ai ki te kōrero i te reo Māori ki ngā tamariki. Ka whakamahi ngā tamariki i te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo rauemi. Ka āta whakarite ngā kaimahi i te noho wātea o ngā taputapu mā ngā tamariki. Ka ako ngātahi te tuakana me te teina, i a rātou e tūhura haere ana. Ka huna, ka oma, ka tākaro, ka whakaaro pohewa, ka tiaki hoki ngā tamariki i a rātou anō, ā, ka whakapuaki whakaaro anō hoki rātou i tō rātou taiao ako. He wāteatea te wāhi tākaro nui o waho e mau nei i ngā rauemi kia ako ai ngā tamariki mā te tākaro. Ka whakaratohia ngā whai wāhitanga kia whanake ai te māramatanga ki te Tainuitanga ki tua atu i te kōhanga reo. Ka kawe atu te whānau me ngā kaimahi i ngā tamariki ki ngā marae e tū pātata atu ana me ngā poukai. E whakapūmau ana aua wheako i ō rātou tuakiri, i tā rātou ako anō hoki ki te tū hei tangata whenua, ā, i ngā tikanga hoki o Tainui. He māia, he mātātoa hoki ngā tamariki hei ākonga.
Kua whakaritea ngā mahi e pā ana ki te whakamahere me te aromatawai. E hāpai ana ngā mahere hōtaka i te kaiako matua hou ki te āta ārahi i ngā akoranga mā ngā kaimahi me ngā tamariki. Kua tuituia Ngā Taumata Whakahirahira, puta noa i ngā mahere hōtaka. Ka whakamahere ngātahi ngā kaimahi, ā, ka whakauru rātou i ngā huihuinga me ngā kaupapa o Tainui ki ngā mahere. Ka whakapuaki ngā kaimahi i ngā pukapuka aromatawai ki te whānau, hei āhuatanga tonu o ngā hui ā-whānau. Ka tuhi rātou i ngā whāinga ako a ngā tamariki, ā, ka pūrongo i te ahu whakamua o ngā tamariki i roto i te roanga o te wā. Ahakoa hui ai ngā kaimahi i ia te wā ki te whakawhiti kōrero mō te hōtaka akoranga, kei te tīmata noa te whakawhanaketanga o te aromātai hōtaka.
E ahu whakamua ana te whānau ki te kawe ake anō i ngā mahi katoa e pā ana ki te whakahaeretanga a te whānau me ngā whakaritenga. Kua whakapau rātou i ngā haora maha ki te mahi tūao, hei whakahaumanu anō i te kōhanga reo i roto i ngā taumahatanga o te wā nei. E whakanui ana te mahere rautaki i te whai wāhi mai a te whānau, me te aronga, te tirohanga hoki o te kōhanga reo. He mātātoa ngā mema hou o te whānau ki te whakarato i ō rātou pūkenga, hei kōkiri i te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo mō ā rātou tamariki. Kua whai wāhi nui te kaiwhakahaere hou ki te whakapikitanga ake o te tatauranga tamariki. Kua whakaritea tētahi mahere ā-tau e hāpai ana i te rere ngāwari o ngā whakahaeretanga o ia rā.

Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa is located in an industrial area of Frankton, in Hamilton. Since mid-2017, Te Kōhanga Reo National Trust has been providing management support and guidance for the new whānau following a six-month period when the kōhanga reo was in recess. The new kaimahi and whānau are highly motivated and committed to the sustainability of the kaupapa and ensuring positive outcomes for children.
Children are developing understanding of their connections to Tainui.
Children are immersed in tikanga of Tainui. Kaimahi and children acknowledge Te Kīngitanga during mat time as they begin their daily learning. Children confidently recite the order of Te Kīngitanga and include unique actions to show their understanding of each ariki. Kaimahi display photos of the Kīngitanga so children can familiarise themselves with prominent faces and names. Most children have whakapapa connections to Tainui and confidently share their pepeha with each other. Kaimahi stand alongside children as kaikaranga and reaffirm their identity as Tainui. Children are developing confidence.
Children experience whanaungatanga. Kaimahi and whānau model respect, care and aroha. Deliberate strategies are used by kaimahi to affirm children’s connection to Tainui. Leadership opportunities are provided for children, as future kaikarakia and kaikaranga for their hapū. Kaimahi and whanau create opportunities for children to interact with kaumātua and kuia. Kuia ensure babies are settled and supported to participate alongside their tuakana. Tuakana thrive as leaders in their learning and when supporting teina. Interactions between children are gentle. Children’s learning is positively managed and their efforts are praised often. Kaimahi establish clear expectations and gently refocus children when needed. Children are happy and settled in their kōhanga reo.
Children are encouraged to use te reo Māori. Kuia speak to babies and provide them with expert models of te reo Māori. Babies show their understanding through facial expressions and body language. Children confidently follow and respond appropriately to instructions. Kaimahi use language strategies that extend the thinking skills of older children. These include questioning, making deliberate errors, repetition, modelling and fun activities. Older children understand open ended questions and enjoy giving answers. They are supported to confidently share their ideas with others during formal learning times. Children are supported by kaimahi to lead karakia Pai Mārire particular to Tainui. Tainui waiata are displayed on the walls. Children hear Tainui kīwaha and dialect as the iwi radio station plays softly in the background throughout the day. Children are developing skills to confidently communicate in te reo Māori.
Children participate in an environment that caters to their learning needs. Kaimahi provide intentionally planned activities to engage children. They make the most of frequent opportunities to speak Māori with children. Children use a wide range of resources. Kaimahi ensure that equipment is accessible for children. Tuakana and teina learn alongside each other as they explore. Children hide, run, play, imagine, self-manage and express themselves in their learning environment. There is a large spacious outdoor area equipped for children to learn through play. Opportunities are provided to develop understanding of Tainuitanga beyond the kōhanga reo. Whānau and kaimahi take children to nearby marae and to Poukai. These experiences reinforce their identity and learning of tangata whenua roles and Tainui tikanga. Children are confident and active learners.
Planning and assessment practices are in place. Programme planning supports the new kaiako matua to effectively lead learning for kaimahi and children. Ngā Taumata Whakahirahira are woven throughout programme planning. Kaimahi plan collaboratively and includes events and kaupapa pertaining to Tainui. Kaimahi share assessment books with whānau as part of whānau hui. They record learning objectives for children and report on children’s progress over time. Although kaimahi meet regularly to discuss the learning programme, programme evaluation is at an early stage of development.
The whānau is working towards resuming full responsibility for all aspects of whānau management and operations. They are have committed many voluntary hours to revitalise the kōhanga reo during recent challenging times. The strategic plan acknowledges whānau input, direction and vision for the kōhanga reo. New whānau members are proactive in offering their skills to advance the kaupapa of the kōhanga reo for their children. The new kaiwhakahaere has been instrumental in increasing the roll. An annual plan is in place and supports smooth daily operations. Policies and procedures are updated and reviewed. Health and safety registers are maintained and monitored. The kōhanga reo is managed well for the benefit of children.
The whānau are strengthening their management of the kōhanga reo. In order for the whānau to improve self review practices, they need to:
During the evaluation, ERO looked at the kōhanga reo systems for managing the following areas that have a potentially high impact on children's wellbeing:
All kōhanga reo are required to promote children's health and safety and to regularly review their compliance with legal requirements. No issues of non-compliance were identified during this review.
ERO and the Kōhanga Reo whānau developed the following recommendation:
The next ERO evaluation of Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa will be in three years.

E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa ki te wāhi ahumahi kei te hauāuru o te tāone o Kirikiriroa. I huakina ai te kōhanga reo i te tau 1992, ā, kua mārō ināianei tana noho i waenganui i te hapori.
He pai te pūrongotanga o Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i te kōhanga reo i roto i ngā tau. I puta i te pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake, i te tau 2012, ngā tino o te kōhanga reo tae ana ki te hōtaka ako a ngā tamariki, ki ngā mahere, ki ngā tikanga aromatawai, ki te reo Māori me te whakahaere a te whānau. Ko ngā wāhanga hei whakawhanake tonu ko ngā whakahaere manaaki tamariki, ko te tokomaha e tika ana ki ngā tamariki, ko ngā mahere rautaki me te arotake i te hōtaka.
E tino tautokona ana ngā tamariki ki te whanake hei ākonga māia mōhio hoki.
He māia tā ngā tamariki whai i ō rātou hiahia puta noa i te rā. E manaakitia ana ngā taumata me ngā pūkenga katoa o ngā tamariki. E tūwhare ana ki a rātou te huhua o ngā kaupapa mahi me ngā rauemi. He akoranga pai ka puta i te whakaū a ngā tamariki i ngā tikanga mahi. He nui ngā wā e taea ana e ngā tamariki te korikori tinana me te puta anō ki waho. He wāhi motuhake ki roto, ki waho hoki ō ngā pepi. E whai wāhi atu ana ngā tamariki ki tētehi taiao e whakataonga ana i te oranga o o rātou wairua, ā, e kounga kē atu nei a rātou akoranga.
E whai wāhi atu ana ngā tamariki ki ngā hononga pai, manaaki hoki. He rite tonu tā ngā kaimahi whakamihi i nga tamariki me te whakamana i o rātou kaha, whakatutukitanga hoki. Ka ākina, ka tautokona hoki ngā tamariki ki te ako i te taha o tangata kē atu.
He pai ki ngā tamariki te ako i te reo Māori. E mau tonu ana ngā kaimahi ki te taiao reo Māori. Ka whakatauira rātou, ka whakaū hoki i ngā kupu hou hei whakamomona i te mōhio o ngā tamariki. E taea ana e ngā tamariki te whakamahi i ngā kupu me ngā rerenga māmā nei. E tupu ana te māramatanga o ngā tamariki ki te reo Māori.
E tau ana ngā tama pakeke, ā, e kuhu ana ki te ako. Kua whakaūngia e ngā kaimahi tētehi hōtaka e hāngai ana ki ngā tama. Kei te tīmata te hōtaka, e whakahaeretia ana e te matua, ki te whakaputa i ngā panonitanga pai i roto i o rātou whanonga me ngā akoranga. Kua whai akoranga anō te matua ki te tautoko i a ia anō i roto i ēnei mahi. E taea ana e ngā tama ināianei te aro ki ngā mahi mō ngā wā poto. Ka tere kē atu tā rātou noho tau, ā, me te tika o te whakapuaki i a rātou anō. He pai te manaakitanga o ngā tama, ā, e pakari mai ana hei ākonga māia.
Ahakoa e taea ana e ngā tamariki te whai me te mārama ki ngā rerenga, ki ngā tohutohu me ngā whakawhitinga kōrero he pai kē atu ki ā rātou te whakautu ki te reo Pākehā. Me whakawhanake, me whakaū hoki e ngā kaimahi tētehi rautaki ki te akiaki me te tautoko i ngā tamariki kia rite tonu te whakamahi i te reo Māori. Mā tēnei e māori ake ai, e ngāwari ake ai tā ngā tamariki kōrero, whakamahi hoki i te reo Māori.
Ko te akotanga, ko te orangatanga me te manaakitanga o ngā tamariki ngā mea nui ki te whānau. He mārama ngā pūnaha me ngā aratohu mō te whakahaere tika. E whai whakaaro ana te whānau ki tangata kē atu, ā, e whakatairanga ana i te kōatata, tatū atu ki te mārama o ngā hiahia me ngā tukanga. E taea ana e te whānau te whiriwhiri i o rātou tino me ngā tikanga hei whakaniko tonu. He nui te mātakitakitanga o ngā kaupapa haumaru. Ko te rite tonu o te kōrerorero te kaiwhakamōhio i te whānau mō ngā kaupapa me ngā kōrero whai take.
He mārama te tukanga a ngā kaimahi mō te mahere i te hōtaka, mō ngā arotakenga me ngā aromatawai i ngā mea e ako ana ngā tamariki. E whakarārangitia ana e te mahere ngā kaupapa, ngā rautaki ako, me ngā rauemi. E whakaao māramatia ana e te arotakenga ngā whakanikotanga ki te hōtaka ako. Ka whai hua ngā tamariki i tētehi hōtaka kua tika te maheretia, te whakahaeretia hoki.
Kei te whānau tētehi mahere rautaki e whakawhanaketia tonutia ana i tēnei wā. He kōiwi noa iho te mahere kāore anō i kitea ngā kaupapa nui hei whakawhanake ake.
Me whakamomori kē atu te whānau i roto i ngā tukanga whakatau whakaaro me te whakahaere. Kāore i te rite tonu tā rātou whai wāhi atu ki te arotake i ngā kawa me ngā tikanga. He pai kē atu ki te whānau te tae atu ki ngā kaupapa penapena moni, ngā kaupapa mā ngā tamariki me ngā haerenga. Kua roa ngā kaimahi me te kōmiti e kōkiri ana i te kaupapa nui ki te whakapiki i te whai wāhitanga mai a te whānau me te kōmiti ki ngā whakahaere a te kōhanga reo.
I te wā o te arotake, i whakamātauhia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga ngā pūnaha o te kōhanga reo ki te whakahaere i ngā āhuatanga i raro iho nei e whai pānga nui ana ki te waiora o ngā tamariki:
Ko te tikanga, ka whakatairanga ngā kōhanga reo katoa i te hauora me te haumaru o ngā tamariki, me te arotake anō hoki i ia te wā i tā rātou whakatutukitanga i ngā herenga ā-ture.
I whakaae a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau kia:
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa ki te wāhi ahumahi kei te hauāuru o te tāone o Kirikiriroa. E tino tautokona ana ngā tamariki i roto i te hōtaka ako, ā, he pai te pakari haere hei ākonga tau, māia hoki. E tino manaakitia ana ngā tamariki. Ka arotake anō Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i roto i te toru o ngā tau.
Ka arotake anō Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa i roto i te toru o ngā tau.

Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa is situated in an industrial area of Frankton, in Hamilton City. The kōhanga reo began in 1992 and has become a well established part of the community.
The kōhanga reo has had a positive history of ERO reporting. The ERO review of 2012 identified a number of strengths including the children’s learning programme, planning, assessment practices, te reo Māori and whānau management. Areas that needed development included supervision practices, child to adult ratios, strategic planning and programme evaluation.
Children are well supported to develop as confident and competent learners.
Children confidently follow their interests throughout the day. Children of all age levels and abilities are well catered for. They have access to a wide variety of activities and resources. Routines are positive learning times for children. Children have several opportunities to be physically active and enjoy being outdoors. Babies have their own indoor and outdoor areas. Children experience an environment where their emotional wellbeing is a priority and their learning is enriched.
Children experience positive and caring relationships. Kaimahi regularly praise children and acknowledge their efforts and achievements. Children are encouraged and supported to learn with and alongside others.
Children enjoy learning te reo Māori. Kaimahi maintain a te reo Māori speaking environment. They model and reinforce new vocabulary to extend children’s knowledge. Children are able to use simple words and phrases. Children are developing a good understanding of te reo Māori.
The older boys are settled and engaged in learning. Kaimahi have implemented a programme to support the boys. The programme, led by a male kaiako is beginning to produce positive changes in their overall behaviour and learning. The kaiako has sought further learning to support him in this area. The boys can now focus on activities for short periods of time. They settle more quickly and express themselves appropriately. Boys are well supported and are develop as confident learners.
Although children are able to follow and understand phrases, instructions and conversations, they prefer to reply mainly in English. Kaimahi need to develop and implement strategies to encourage and support children to use te reo Māori more regularly. This would result in children speaking and using te reo Māori in a more natural, comfortable way.
Children’s learning, wellbeing and care are key priorities for whānau. There are clear systems and guidelines for effective management. The whānau is inclusive and promotes transparent and clear expectations and processes. The whānau are able to identify their strengths and the practices that need improvement. Health and safety practices are constantly monitored. Consistent communication keeps whānau up to date with events and important information.
Kaimahi have clear processes for programme planning and evaluation and assessment of children’s learning. Planning outlines the content, teaching strategies and resources. Evaluations identify improvements to be made to the learning programme. Children benefit from processes that are well organised and managed.
The whānau has a strategic plan which they are currently redeveloping. The plan is basic and does not clearly identify priorities for development.
A greater commitment needs to be shown by whanau towards decision making processes and management. They do not participate in regular review of policy and practice. Whānau prefer to attend events that relate to fundraising, children’s activities and outings. Increasing whānau participation in the management of the kōhanga reo has been an ongoing priority for kaimahi and the committee.
During the review, ERO looked at the kōhanga reo systems for managing the following areas that have a potentially high impact on children's wellbeing:
All kōhanga reo are required to promote children's health and safety and to regularly review their compliance with legal requirements.
ERO and the whānau agreed that the whānau should:
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa is situated in an industrial area of Frankton, Hamilton City. Children are well supported within the programme and are developing well as competent and confident learners. Children are well cared for. The next ERO review will be in three years.
The next ERO review of Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Oranga o Ngā Kaupapa will be in three years.
