2WE ARE SPECIAL
At Tuatara kids, we adopt and breath the
Tuakana-Teina way of learning. A traditional
Maori model of buddy system.
3WHAT IS TUAKANA-TEINA?
The tuakana-teina buddy system entails a more
experienced tuakana helping, assisting, and
guiding a less experienced teina. In our
environment, where we value ako, we encourage
this method of learning. Tuakana refers to older
sibling or the able while teina refers to
younger sibling or the less- able.
4WHAT WE VALUE
Our localized curriculum and program are led by
the interests of our toddlers and created in
partnership with parents aspirations to help the
children realize their full potential through
strong Tuakana-Teina (Traditional Maori
Teachings) relationships.

6OUR PHILOSOPHY
- Establishing a learning environment that is full
of opportunities, challenges, and resources. - Educating young people to value their own
individuality as well as the diversity of others. - Toddlers take the reins of their own education,
and we support, encourage, and advance them. - By actively participating in our Tuatara
community and inviting everyone to contribute to
the learning of our center's tamariki, whanau,
and kaiako, we embrace the sense of community. - We acknowledge Te Whariki, the early childhood
curriculum used in New Zealand, as it informs and
inspires everything we do as teachers.
