Last Friday Sandra took an enthusistic group of gardeners to our local plant shop for Nohonga tahitanga (our Friday visits into the community).
The children's interest was sustained over the weekend with them keen to get planting as soon as
they came in the gate.
Kaitiakitanga is based on the belief that people are responsible for caring for their natural resources and for nurturing them to sustain their existence.
Taking responsibility for buying, choosing,planting and nurturing what is in our gardens ,the children will take the role of the teina and care and protect our seeds so that they may grow and give us food and flowers for enjoyment and to feed us. Having responsibility for caring for our environment also promotes a sense of pride and belonging so that children truely believe that kindergarten is their place.
