Kotahitanga - Bringing Unity

9am has become a very special and exciting time at Geraldine Kindergarten, Kotahitanga - a time for us to come together. Initially everyone joins in on Jump Jam to get the morning started with a bang!

A circle is then formed and our multi-cultural heritage is recognised as we join together to say our Mihi and Karakia. Children then take responsibility by handing around fruit that has been bought in by families to share. We then take a few minutes to encourage children to reflect on and share possibilities for the day ahead – forming connections from prior learning into today’s experiences, before returning to play.

Thank you for your on going support as you continue to bring fruit in to contribute to this special time!
