Manaia School
Our local curriculum brings the New Zealand Curriculum to life in our school context. it is responsive to the priorities, preferences, and issues of our community. and people. While developing and refining our local curriculum we aim to ensure that it:
NZ/Aotearoa History is now taught in all schools throughout our country. As part of this learning we will be connecting with local experts and iwi in our rohe (area) to provide rich experiences about our local history.
Out of the classroom learning experiences provide students with a range of contexts to develop the key competencies, explore their values and the values of others, and apply learning across the curriculum.
An EOTC experience can be ten minutes in the school grounds, a half day visit to the bush, river or local museum. It can be a camping experience, being involved in a hands on project in the school's grounds or a local reserve, playing sport, performing at a local Kapa Haka competition or dancing in a children's art festival.
Each experience provides students with the opportunity to do and learn new things.
Enviroschools is a nationwide programme supported by Toimata Foundation, founding partner Te Mauri Tau, and a large network of regional partners. Early childhood centres and schools commit to a long-term sustainability journey, where tamariki/students connect with and explore the environment, then plan, design and take action in their local places in collaboration with their communities.
