Ka kitea ki ngā tuākana ō rātou pūmanawa ki te ārahi, ā, ka kaha poipoi hoki rātou i ngā tēina.
Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i ngā rautaki e tino whai hua ana ki te whakawhānui i te whakawhanaketanga reo Māori o ngā mokopuna. E ako ana ngā mokopuna i te hanganga me te pūtake o te reo, ā, ka tūmāia rātou ki te taki i ngā karakia me ngā mihimihi. Ka whakamahi ngā tuākana i te reo Māori hei whakapuaki i ō rātou whakaaro ki ngā horopaki ōkawa, ā, i ngā wā hoki ka pupū ake. Kua tuituia ki te hōtaka akoranga, ko ngā pātai whānui me te tangongitanga o ngā waiata mō ngā tūmomo kaupapa, hei whakahōhonu ake i te puna kupu o ngā mokopuna. Ka hāpai ngā kaimahi i ngā pēpi me ngā tēina ki te whakamahi i ngā nekehanga ā-ringa, ā-kanohi hoki me ngā oro, hei tohu i tō rātou māramatanga. Ka tūmāia, he mātau hoki ngā mokopuna, ā, ka ngākau nui rātou ki te ako.
Ko te ako a ngā mokopuna me tō rātou atawhai, e noho mātua ana. Ka ārahi, ka whakatairanga hoki te mahere ako i ngā whakaakoranga me ngā akoranga a ngā mokopuna. E whai pūtake ana, e hāngai pū ana hoki ngā aromatawai. Ka ū ngā kaimahi ki te āta whakatakoto haere i ia te wā i ngā tuhinga e pā ana ki te ahu whakamua o ngā akoranga me te whakawhanaketanga i roto i te roanga o te wā. Ka arotahi te aromātai hōtaka ki te kounga o te hōtaka akoranga, ki ngā putanga ki ngā mokopuna, ā, ki ngā whakapaitanga ki te hōtaka akoranga. Ko ngā whakawhitinga kōrero i tuhia ai, e arotahi ana ki ngā putanga ki ngā mokopuna, me ngā huarahi ka whāia e ngā kaimahi hei āta whakatau i te whiwhinga o ngā mokopuna i tētahi hōtaka akoranga i āta whakamaheretia ai.

E whakawhāriki ana taua tuhinga i te aronga nahanaha ki te whakatutuki i ngā wawata o te whānau, ā, e pou herea ana ki ngā mātāpono o Te Korowai. Ka whakamōhiotia te mahere rautaki ki Te Ara Tūāpae, ā, e whakapuaki ana hoki i ngā kaupapa matua me ngā whāinga a te whānau. Kua tautuhia e te whānau ngā rautaki matua mō te whakawhanaketanga o te reo Māori, ka whakamana i te whānau me ngā mokopuna, ā, ka whakatairanga i te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo. Arotakengia ai ngā kaupapa here me ngā tukanga e pā ana ki te hauora, te haumaru, me te whakahaeretanga o ngā kaimahi. Kua āta whakatakotohia ngā tuhinga e pā ana ki ngā kaimahi, ā, e hāngai katoa ana ki tēnei wā. Kua whakatutukihia ngā arohaehae, ā, e arotahi ana te whakawhanaketanga ngaio ki te whakapiki ake i te mōhiotanga o ngā kaimahi, otirā, e hāngai nui ana ki te whakapai tonutanga. Ka aro nui te whānau ki ngā mahi katoa e pā ana ki te whakahaeretanga o te tari, ā, he pai hoki te whakatutuki haere i ngā kaupapa matua. Tū ai ngā hui ā-whānau i ia te wā, he nui ngā mōhiohio i aua hui, ā, ka tuhia hoki ngā kōrero. E whakamōhio ana, e whakaaweawe ana hoki te aromātai o roto i ngā tukanga mō ngā whakataunga. Ko ngā mokopuna kei te pūtake o ngā mahi whakahaere a te whānau.

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 Tiehutia Te Waka is located at Whangaehu Marae near Whanganui. The local iwi are Ngā Wairiki and Ngati Apa. Whānau and kaimahi aspire to open another kōhanga reo to cater for the growth of mokopuna and the current waiting list.
Mokopuna are confident and engaged learners in their kōhanga reo.
Mokopuna learn in a high-quality and stimulating learning environment. Kaimahi work collaboratively to provide an extensive range of activities for mokopuna that promotes curiosity, investigation and creativity. Indoor and outdoor learning areas are vibrant, creative and organised; this promotes group and individual learning. Routines and expectations are well established and predictable for mokopuna. Pēpi, tēina and tuakana have their own learning space. The individual needs of pēpi and teina influence the way kaimahi support them as they learn and grow. The whānau and kaimahi have created a wonderous learning environment that promotes manaaki, aroha and tiaki. These values underpin the essence of the whanaungatanga. Kaimahi model positive relationships that lead to highly stimulating interactions. Tuākana display leadership qualities and are nurturing of tēina.
Kaimahi use highly effective strategies to extend mokopuna te reo Māori development. Mokopuna learn about the structure and purpose of language and recite karakia and mihimihi with confidence. Tuakana use te reo Māori to express themselves in formal settings and in spontaneous ways. Open ended questions and a range of waiata for different occasions are integrated into the learning programme to build mokopuna vocabulary. Kaimahi support the pēpi and tēina to use hand actions, facial expressions and sounds, to demonstrate their understanding. Mokopuna are confident and competent and enjoy learning.
Mokopuna learning and care is a priority. The mahere ako guides and promotes teaching and learning for mokopuna. Assessment is purposeful and relevant. Kaimahi maintain clear records of learning progress and development over a period. Programme evaluation focuses on the quality of the learning programme, outcomes for mokopuna, and improvements to be made to the learning programme. Documented discussions focus on outcomes for mokopuna and how kaimahi will ensure mokopuna receive a well-planned learning programme. Mokopuna learning is being enhanced through focused teaching approaches.
The whānau has highly effective and efficient systems to monitor the kōhanga reo operations. The Tūtohinga includes the history of the kōhanga reo since its inception and encapsulates the aspirations for mokopuna, whānau, hapu, iwi. This document sets out a planned approach to achieving whānau aspirations which are underpinned by the principles of Te Korowai. The strategic plan is informed by Te Ara Tuapae and expresses the whānau priorities and goals. Whānau have identified key strategies for the development of te reo Māori, empowering whānau and mokopuna, and promoting the kōhanga reo movement. Health, safety and personnel management policies and procedures are reviewed regularly. Kaimahi personnel documentation is current and in place. Appraisals are complete with professional development focussed on increasing kaimahi knowledge particularly aimed at ongoing improvement. Whānau are attentive to all administrative tasks and priorities are attended to well. Whānau hui are held regularly, are informative, and documented. Internal evaluation informs and influences decision-making processes. Mokopuna are the centre of whānau whakahaere.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation:

Maringihia mai rā ngā waitukukiri o Whangaehu
Nō te tihi o Ruapehu koe i whānau mai
Nō Matua te mana e kōriporipo ana ōu ngaru
Te tau ai ki ngā whenua ki a Ruatangata, ki a Rakautaua e
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Tīehutia Te Waka ki te marae o Whangaehu, e pā tata atu ana ki Whanganui. Ko Ngā Wairiki rāua ko Ngāti Apa ngā iwi o tēnei takiwā. E noho pūmau ana te whānau ki te whakahaumanutanga o te reo Māori, hei painga mō ō rātou whānau, ō rātou hapū, me ō rātou iwi. He hononga ā-whakapapa tō te nuinga o ngā whānau ki te marae o Whangaehu.
Ka kitea ki ngā tamariki tō rātou tino aronga toi whenuatanga ki tō rātou kōhanga reo me tō rātou marae.
E āta tautokona ana te kōrero a ngā tamariki i te reo Māori. Ka whakarite ngā kaimahi kia rongo ai ngā tamariki i te reo Māori anake ki te kōhanga reo. Ka whakaatu ngā pēpi i ō rātou māramatanga mā ā rātou nekehanga. Ka whakamahi ngā tamariki tuākana i ngā kupu māmā, ngā kīanga māmā, me ngā rerenga kōrero māmā. Haere ai rātou i ia te wā ki ngā hui i te marae, ā, ka rongo rātou i te reo Māori e whakamahia ana i ngā horopaki ōkawa. Ka whakapūmautia te reo ā-iwi o Ngā Wairiki rāua ko Ngāti Apa e ngā kaimahi me te whānau. Ka whakamātau ngā kaimahi ki te whakamahi i te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo rautaki hei hāpai i te whakawhanaketanga reo. Ko ētahi o aua rautaki, ko te akiaki, te tāruarua, me te waiata. E tīmata ana ngā tamariki ki te ako i te reo Māori.
He pakari te tūhura haere o ngā tamariki i tō rātou taiao. Ka whai pānga matua te marae ki te hōtaka akoranga. Ka whai wāhi atu ngā tamariki ki ngā kaupapa i te marae, ā, i konei rātou ako ai i te manaaki, te aroha, me te tiaki. Ka whakawhanaunga atu rātou ki ngā kaumātua me te whānau whānui. Ka ako ngā tamariki i ngā waiata e whakamana ana i ō rātou hononga ki tō rātou marae, ō rātou hapū, me ō rātou iwi. Ka kawe mai ngā whānau i ā rātou tamariki ki te kōhanga reo nei, nā te tino hononga o te kōhanga reo ki te marae. E mōhio ana ngā tamariki ki te whānuitanga o tō rātou kōhanga reo me tō rātou marae.
Ka rongo ngā tamariki i te pai o ngā taunekeneke. Ka whakarato te whānau i tētahi taiao e hāpai ana i te whakawhanaketanga o te katoa o ia tamaiti. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i te whānuitanga o ngā rautaki papai e whakatairanga ana i te tūmāia me te whakawhirinaki, pērā i te tuku mihi me ngā kōrero akiaki i ia te wā. He maha ngā wā ka mahi ngātahi rātou ki te taha o ngā tamariki i roto i ngā taumahi. He pai te mahi ngātahi a ngā tamariki ki ō rātou hoa. Ka kitea tō rātou manaaki me tō rātou whakaaro nui ki ētahi atu. Ka hāpai ngā tuākana i ngā tēina i roto i ngā tākaro me ngā akoranga. He mauritau ngā tamariki i roto i ō rātou hononga ki ētahi atu.
He whānui ngā tūmomo taumata reo Māori o ngā kaimahi. Kua tāutuhia e rātou ko te reo Māori tētahi āhuatanga hei whakawhanake tonu. Kāhore te reo Māori e kōrerohia ana i te nuinga o ngā kāinga o ngā tamariki. Kāhore anō te whānau kia āta whakamahere ki te whakapiki ake i tō rātou māramatanga me tā rātou whakamahinga i te reo Māori hei hāpai i ā rātou tamariki me te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo. Kāhore ngā tamariki e whiwhi ana i ngā hua ka puta i te riterite me te pai o ngā tauira reo Māori.
E whakahaere ana te whānau i te kōhanga reo hei painga mō ngā tamariki. He mārama ā rātou whāinga rautaki, ā, ka arotake rātou i ngā kaupapa here i ia te wā. Ka āta whakarite rātou kia rawaka ngā rauemi ki te kōhanga reo. Ka hāpai rātou i ngā kaimahi ki te āta whai wāhi atu ki te whakawhanaketanga ngaio. Ka arahina, ka hāpaitia hoki e ngā kaumātua. E whai wāhi atu ana ngā tamariki ki te pai o tētahi taiao ako.
E whiwhi ana ngā tamariki i ngā painga o ngā mahi whakamahere me ngā aromatawai e whai hua ana. Ka mahi ngātahi ngā kaimahi ki te whakamahere me te whakapuaki i te hōtaka akoranga. Kei ngā mahere ngā tino kaupapa ā-iwi me ngā huihuinga whakahirahira o te ao Māori. Kei ngā kaiako ngā mahinga me ngā wā ako i āta whakaritea ai. Ka whakarato rātou i ngā rauemi me ngā taumahi e tika ana mō ngā rōpū reanga o ngā tamariki, me ō rātou āheinga. Ka tuhi haere, ka aroturuki hoki ngā kaimahi i te ahu whakamua o te ako. E ākina ana te kōrero urupare a te whānau, mō te āhua o te ahu whakamua o ā rātou ake tamariki. He ngana te ako a ngā tamariki.
He whāiti te aromātai hōtaka. Ahakoa ka hui ngā kaimahi i ia te wā ki te whakaaro huritao me te whakamahere, kāhore anō rātou kia tuhia aua kōrerorero. Kāhore anō hoki ngā kaimahi kia tāutu i ngā tino whāinga ako ka ārahi i te whakapuakitanga me te aromātaitanga o te hōtaka.
I te wā o te aromātai, 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 whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo te taunakitanga e whai ake nei:
Ka aromātai anō Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i Te Kōhanga Reo o Tīehutia Te Waka i roto i te toru o ngā tau.

Te Kōhanga Reo o Tīehutia Te Waka is at Whangaehu Marae near Whanganui. The local iwi are Ngā Wairiki and Ngāti Apa. The whānau is committed to the revitalisation of te reo Māori for their whānau, hapū and iwi. Most whānau have whakapapa connections to Whangaehu marae.
Children demonstrate a strong sense of belonging to their kōhanga reo and their marae.
Children are well supported to speak te reo Māori. Kaimahi ensure te reo Māori is the only language children hear. Babies use non-verbal gestures to show their understanding. Older children can use basic words, phrases and sentences. They regularly attend hui at the marae where they hear te reo Māori used in formal contexts. The dialect of Ngā Wairiki-Ngāti Apa is reinforced by kaimahi and the whānau. Kaiako attempt to use a range of strategies to support language development. These include prompts, repetition, and waiata. Children are early learners of te reo Māori.
Children confidently explore their physical environment. The marae is central to the learning programme. Children participate in marae activities where they learn about manaaki, aroha and tiaki. They interact with kaumatua and extended whānau. Children learn waiata which affirm their connections to their marae, hapū and iwi. Whānau bring their children to the kōhanga reo because of its close connection to the marae. Children are aware of their kōhanga reo and the marae environment
Children experience positive interactions. Whānau provide an environment that supports the holistic development of all children. Kaimahi use a range of positive strategies to promote confidence and trust including regular praise and encouragement. They often work with and alongside children during activities. Children work well with their peers. They demonstrate care and respect for others. Tuākana support tēina in their play and learning. Children are secure in their relationships with others.
Kaimahi have varying degrees of expertise in te reo Māori. They have identified that te reo Māori is an area for ongoing development. Most children do not come from Māori speaking homes. Whānau have not deliberately planned to increase their understanding and usage of te reo Māori to support their children and the kaupapa of kōhanga reo. Children do not benefit from consistent and good models of te reo Māori.
Whānau manage the kōhanga reo in the interests of children. They have clear strategic goals and regularly review policies. They ensure that the kōhanga reo is adequately resourced. They support kaimahi to engage in professional development. Kaumātua provide guidance and support. Children experience a positive learning environment.
Children benefit from effective planning and assessment. Kaimahi work collaboratively to plan and deliver the learning programme. Planning includes significant iwi events and important occasions in the Māori world. Kaiako have well established routines and specific learning times. They provide resources and activities which are appropriate for children’s age groups and abilities. Kaimahi record and monitor learning progress. Whānau are encouraged to provide feedback on how their child is progressing. Children are engaged learners.
Programme evaluation is limited. While kaimahi meet regularly to reflect and plan they are yet to record these discussions. Kaimahi are also yet to identify specific learning goals to guide programme delivery and evaluation.
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.
ERO and the Kōhanga Reo whānau developed the following recommendations:
The next ERO evaluation of Te Kōhanga Reo o Tīehutia Te Waka will be in three years.
