Li'l Pumpkins Early Learning

Tamariki in ruuma Kereruu are exploring the world through their senses as an ongoing inquiry project.

By using touch, sight, and taste to explore temperature, cause and effect, and the properties of different materials, tamariki are developing curiosity, patience, and a love of discovery. This hands-on, sensory approach reflects our Reggio philosophy, supporting emergent learning and fostering a deeper connection with the natural world.

Watch out the floor is lava! A great STEAM experience for our tamariki at Glenview today.

The earth has music for those who listen - William Shakespeare.

This week at our Glenview Centre we have been adventuring in our local area. So far we have visited the new bridge and hiked through the Mangakotukutuku gully and stream area. Learning about gifts from Papatuanuku and how to care and protect these taonga.

Its nursery rhymes week and our kaiako are international nursery rhymes ambassadors.
Linking into mathematics we ask, how can we use our maths ideas to build a wall thats just right for Humpty Dumpty?

Our privilege to have our Glenview centre acknowledged in this recently published book on childrens inquiry. This is part of an ongoing research project that started in 2021.
