SUMMARY:Strengthening local curriculum in early childhood settings for our pēpi
DESCRIPTION:Strengthening local curriculum in early childhood settings for our pēpiDiana Cruse\, University of Waikato \nWednesday 11 September\, 7-8:30pm \nOur pēpi thrive when they are in environments that nurture their wairua. Having a localised curriculum\, that builds upon the strengths of whānau\, hapū\, and iwi is one way to implement this. \nBuilding upon research from a 3 year Marsden research project and my PhD\, this kōrero will explore ideas for early learning settings to create and strengthen relationships with whānau\, hapū\, and iwi\, and unpack some of the benefits that this can have for our pēpi\, whānau and communities. \nAs a previous centre owner and manager\, an early childhood kaiako\, and an iwi early childhood education advisor\, I will look at this through various lens of governance\, management and practice. I will also make links to our Professional Growth Cycle\, Internal evaluation and Assessment practices\, to assist our amazing early learning kaiako in their own teaching practices. \nMauri ora! \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:The image of the kaiako; writing Learning Stories for each other
DESCRIPTION:The image of the kaiako; writing Learning Stories for each otherEmma Parangi\, Educational Leadership Project \nWednesday 14 August\, 7-8:30pm \nJust as our view of tamariki is culturally and socially created\, so are our views of ourselves as kaiako. How does this show up in our whanaungatanga with our colleagues\, mentors\, mentees\, and student kaiako? Are we engaging in regular reflective practices exploring our thoughts and feelings about our roles as kaiako?Join Emma for this wānanga to unpack these pātai together.We will explore how learning stories are the perfect form to shift\, uplift\, broaden\, or strengthen our views of ourselves and each other. Learning stories can be multi-functional\, and an essential function is to communicate with who you are writing to\, through a strength based approach to learning and growth. Writing learning stories for each other as leaders and kaiako is a wonderful way to build and maintain supportive\, growth focussed and robust team relationships. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:Sewing Pūrākau in the Fabric of Our Place – A Kaiako Te Tiriti Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Sewing Pūrākau in the Fabric of Our Place – A Kaiako Te Tiriti PerspectiveCatalina Thompson\, Educational Leadership Project \nWednesday 10 July\, 7-8:30pm \nLocalised curriculum or place-based curriculum are phrases we often hear in our pedagogical discourse. In essence\, these concepts are concerned with the relationship between people and their identities\, the place which they occupy as a learning community and the spaces around it\, imbued with story and history. The unique fabric of our learning space is what localises our curriculum. In the New Zealand Annual Review of Education\, 2009\, Wally Penetito tells us that place-based education “emerges from the particular attributes of a place and ….connects place with self and community….These curricula include multi-generational and multicultural dimensions.” For me\, one of the most powerful resources we possess in enacting meaningfully such curriculum are pūrākau o tangata whenua which\, from a Mātauranga Māori perspective “seek to explain who we are\, where we are from\, why we do things the way we do and how we organise ourselves with an eye to both past and future.” (Puwhare R.\, 2016). Moreover\, we cannot speak of truly honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi in our early childhood spaces without knowing the stories of the land we stand on. But how can we practically achieve this ‘knowing’ for our tamariki me ōna whānau? This lecture seeks to give one answer to a complex yet intriguing question from a kaiako Te Tiriti perspective. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:Weaving Te Whāriki Aspirations into Our Collective Learning Culture
DESCRIPTION:Weaving Te Whāriki Aspirations into Our Collective Learning CultureLorraine Sands\, Educational Leadership Project \nWednesday 12 June\, 7-8:30pm \nWe all have different stories\, varied experiences\, and unique world views. We celebrate this uniqueness\, yet we are also committed\, as early childhood kaiako\, to being responsive to our mokopuna in ways that bring Te Whāriki aspirations to life. How then might we embrace the unique stories of our community while being very clear about the kind of learning culture we collectively aspire to? How do we figure out together ways to live Te Whāriki each day\, in the small listening responsive\, empathic moments as well as in the big value-laden messages we send to mokopuna\, whānau\, and each other through the ways we design our learning environments? \nThis workshop considers these ideas\, particularly in light of the ways we nurture each other’s professional growth and provide evidence for ERO and the MOE that we meet our obligations to document our progress towards embedding Te Whāriki aspirations into our individual and collective practices. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:Beyond the Horizon: Continuing the journey into Kei Tua o te Pae – Part 2 Unleashed!
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Horizon: Continuing the journey into Kei Tua o te Pae – Part 2 Unleashed!Wendy Lee\, Educational Leadership Project \nWednesday 8 May\, 7-8:30pm \nLast year\, my lecture set the stage for Kei Tua o te Pae\, titled “Kei tua o te Pae\, beyond the horizon: An opportunity to revisit our Learning Stories journey.” Now\, two decades since the first publication\, we’ve witnessed significant advancements in documenting children’s learning assessment. In part two\, I’ll further this journey\, exploring the crucial aspects raised by Kei Tua o te Pae\, starting with the importance of Māori educational advancement. The focus will then shift to ‘assessment for learning’ Te aromatawai mō te akoranga\, covering key elements like everyday contexts\, embracing uncertainty\, listening to mokopuna\, and collective assessments. Throughout\, I’ll update documentation\, showcasing the richness of our two-decade journey and the enduring value of exemplars. The resource\, anchored in the powerful metaphors of Te Whāriki and Kei Tua o te Pae\, continues to fortify and enrich our educational practice in Aotearoa and beyond. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:Opening the door on teaching and learning for infants in ECE
DESCRIPTION:Opening the door on teaching and learning for infants in ECE: Intuited pedagogy or intentional practice Professor E. Jayne White\, School of Teacher Education\, Faculty of Education\, University of Canterbury \nWednesday 10 April\, 7-8:30pm \nDespite the fact that infants have been part of the NZ ECE curriculum for well over twenty years\, the pedagogies that orient their learning are not easily asserted. There are several reasons for this – not least the lodging of infant pedagogies within wider agendas for older learners that emphasise intentionality. In this session Jayne will draw from her recent research to explore a series of alternative dialogic approaches to infant pedagogies and practices that turn to sensing\, relational pedagogies at their heart. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:Sustainability challenges and strategies for kaiako
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability challenges and strategies for kaiakoDr. Jenny RitchieSchool of Education\, Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington \nWednesday 13 March\, 7-8:30pm \nA year ago many parts of Aotearoa witnessed extreme weather events. In some cases extensive damage has caused families ongoing distress and dislocation. It is therefore timely for kaiako to consider our responsibilities with regard to these increasing climate related disturbances. This presentation will provide an overview of contexts for sustainability obligations with a focus on kaitiakitanga as recognised in Te Whāriki 2017. This will be followed by some examples from previous research\, of teachers and children enacting this obligation to care for ourselves\, others and the places around us. \nBrief bio:Dr Jenny Ritchie focuses her work on education for social\, cultural\, ecological and climate justice. Her research interests include exploring ways to transform a commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi into enactment within teacher education and beyond; identifying pedagogies that affirm and support children’s cultural\, spiritual\, and emotional wellbeing and citizenship enactment; and how understandings of Māori conceptualisations can enhance pedagogies that protect and care for our planet. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View the other events in this series

SUMMARY:O le ala i le pule o le tautua The pathway to leadership is service
DESCRIPTION:O le ala i le pule o le tautua The pathway to leadership is serviceAn insight into honouring le vāJeanette Manu-Ettles\, Angels Childcare \nWednesday 21 February\, 7-8:30pm \nAs a Teine Samoa born in New Zealand I have always been in a space of three worlds\,the world of the ‘palagi’ the world of indigenous peoples of Aotearoa and the world of a Samoan. Having experienced these spaces and worlds it has given me insight into the importance of honouring the relationships between myself and the three worlds.My journey as a Samoan is mine alone\, it is not the journey of all Samoans or all Polynesian people. This talanoa is about how I became to be in my identity as a New Zealand born Samoan and it is my journey in leadership within early childhood and beyond.I have been in early childhood for over 20 years and I have kept my Samoaness with me the entire way through my career\, this has been the pinnacle of my success and the foundation of my leadership within this space. I look forward to our talanoaga and our sharings about how we experience our journey through the value of relationships. \nO lupe sa vao ese’ese\, ae ua fuifui fa’atasiWe are from different parts of the forest but are connected in one cause

SUMMARY:Lecture Series 2023
DESCRIPTION:A wide range of topics presented online on the second Wednesday of each month from 7-9pm!\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Click here to download a flyer for printing!\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Being an Early Childhood Teacher is the best job in the world! Rebecca Kingston\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				This lecture is to reawaken your love for this profession and remind the world just how awesome Early Childhood Teaching is! \nWith all the talk of teachers being burnt out\, headlines about teachers leaving the profession and staff shortages and the job getting harder and harder\, why would anyone decide to become a teacher and stay teaching long term? Because it is still one of the best jobs in the world! The memories I recall of berry picking\, cloud watching\, listening to the stories of the children\, supporting a child come out of a meltdown and smile again and even assisting 15 toddlers and babies to have their afternoon nap and witnessing the noise and commotion slowly move into the peacefulness of little snores and sighs and eventually stillness being some of the biggest blessings of my day. Having worked in several environments and professions\, I knew that this was good\, in fact this could be the best of all.  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				He purapura i ruia mai i Rangiātea e kore e ngaro  A seed sown in Rangiātea will never be lost Brenda Soutar\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				As we contribute to the survival of our people\, our roles and responsibilities as Māori are specific and defined. They are evident within the layering that each generation establishes to ensure continuity of whakapapa. Our ability to carry out these roles and responsibilities is dependent on our sense of belonging. Ranigātea is the essence of home from where our sense of belonging as Māori orginates. How can we support all tamariki to feel at home here in Aotearoa NZ? What does it mean to belong in the context of Te Whāriki and how can we nurture a strong sense of belonging in all tamariki? \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Ko Pohutukawa: Sharing death & other big whakaaro with tamariki Emma Parangi\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Interconnectedness is a pou of Te Ao Māori\, and as in many cultural understandings of the world\, death is integrally connected to life. As we work towards deepening our understandings of Te Ao Māori in ECE through avenues such as pūrākau\, Matariki me Pūanga\, waiata\, karakia\, and ngā Atua Māori\, we will encounter the whakaaro of death\, as well as tikanga and kawa surrounding death\, that are shaped by a Māori worldview. How can we equip ourselves to not only make meaning of these for ourselves as kaiako\, but also to share them with tamariki? How can we do so in ways that honour the mātauranga Māori being shared\, as well as the tamariki and their whānau as unique cultural beings?Join Emma in wānanga to explore these pātai\, and examine how we can hold space for our own ideas and beliefs\, while giving respect to the indigenous knowledges we are drawing upon. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Te āhuatanga o te tamaiti. The learning child: Wrapping assessment in a Te Ao Māori cloak of wisdom and learning dispositions Catalina Thompson\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				At the heart of any assessment practice is the image of the child. A child who comes into this world bursting with potential\, a powerful child\, complete with very unique and distinctive strengths. Therefore\, the relationship between the child and assessment in one; in which the first determines and shapes the second\, not the other way around. So\, how do we honour this perspective inside our narrative assessments? How do we recognise and respond to children’s powerful learning potential? I invite you to embark together on a wānanga\, which aims to challenge and strengthen our understandings around ways in which we write Learning Stories. Te Whatu Pōkeka and the principles of Te Whāriki (with a strong focus on Māori learning dispositions) will overarch the kaupapa of this workshop. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Kei tua o te Pae\, beyond the horizon: An opportunity to revisit our Learning Stories journey Wendy Lee\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				What a journey we have all been on with our Learning Stories in Aotearoa\, and nothing exemplifies this more than Kei tua o te Pae! This lecture will be an opportunity to reflect back on this best-practice guide\, as it provided a solid foundation for our exploration of assessment. \nAcknowledging the complexity of learning means understanding that Noticing\, Recognising\, and Responding will include conjecture and intuition. Recognising complexity also means viewing assessment as something much more complex than assigning marks or ticking boxes. No one format is “right”\, but Te Whāriki principles provide four evaluative criteria\, they are: \n•  Is the identity of the child as a competent and confident learner protected and enhanced by the assessments? •  Do the assessment practices take account of the whole child? •  Do the assessment practices invite the involvement of family and whànau? •  Are the assessments embedded in reciprocal and responsive relationships? \nKei tua o te Pae provided us with an opportunity to reflect and reimagine our journey with assessment. Hopefully this lecture will be an opportunity for you and your setting to reflect on your journey. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Think like a light bulb! Lorraine Sands\n12 July\, 7-9pm \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				These profound words of advice are from an older sister to her younger brother as she offered him ideas to support his climbing efforts. When her Kaiako asked what it meant to “think like a light bulb” Isla said: “It’s all of the good ideas inside your brain that will help you get up”. Over time\, Isla has internalised this dispositional thinking and is now able to apply this thinking in her actions and words.  \nThis workshop considers ways Kaiako intentionally nurture the brain children will have for their lifetime. When teachers write about the times children were being brave\, thoughtful\, kind\, leaderful\, resilient and resourceful and we share these Learning Story narrative assessments across our communities\, children hear these stories in multiple places\, times\, and social contexts. I think we can do this through the way we write Learning Story after story about children in the context of their lived experiences. This means writing about the very essence of being a dispositional learner. As these kinds of Learning Stories are shared they have a dramatic effect on the way children see themselves as learners\, and actually\, on how teachers and families see their children and their own roles in nurturing learning identities for the children they care so deeply about. So\, write with joy\, intensity and energy because what you are writing matters to children and families. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Growing mathematical habits of Mind Karen Ramsey\, Kim Parkinson and Nadine Priebs\n9 August\, 7-9pm\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Children’s mathematical knowledge and understanding is successfully promoted if an investigative approach to mathematical exploration is valued. This workshop will explore the collaboration between tamariki\, whānau and Kaiako to grow and stretch habits of mind through meaningful mathematical experiences. Learning Dispositions such as curiosity\, creativity\, problem-solving\, courage\, inventing\, exploring\, divergent thinking\, and problem-playing are vital habits of mind that support learners to be successful mathematical explorers. We will share how a range of pedagogical strategies\, the environment and robust reflection and evaluation have improved mathematical learning outcomes for all ākonga. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Free to be me: Nurturing agency and identity for infants and toddlersAnita Homewood\n11 October\, 7-9pm\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Te Whāriki recognises and values the infant and the toddler as a citizen with rights in the present\, including the right to be and the right to become. Both are important in the developing identity of self\, and when recognised\, opens our eyes to seeing how incredible our youngest learners really are.  In this lecture\, we will look at what it means to uphold these rights\, and how to support our youngest learners as they discover their sense of self as a learner and a citizen of this world. We will also look at how environment and kaiako practice play a part in the infant’s and the toddler’s growing agency. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Weaving te ao Māori into narrative assessment Maria Sydney\n11 October\, 7-9pm\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Join us in an evening that will provide kaiako with useful tools and examples of how to strengthen the weave of te reo Māori me ona tīkanga Māori in learning stories and beyond. We will tap into the ancestral wisdom of Te Whatu Pōkeka and unpack ways of strengthening our Learning Stories in ways that reflect Māori ways of being\, doing and knowing. \nIf you are already making some of these connections in your Learning Stories\, ka rawe! Come and perhaps learn new tools to add to your kete. If you are a kaiako needing some awhi (guidance) and support to weave more te reo Māori into your Learning Stories in ways that are respectful and meaningful – then this waananga is definitely for you! Nau mai\, whakatau mai. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Ngā reo e toru: Continuing the journey of amplifying the child’s voice Roberta Skeoch\n8 November\, 7-9pm\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Teachers make decisions about what moments of children’s learning to document based on a range of factors including their knowledge of the child and their interpretation of ‘valuable’ learning. But what if children could tell you what they were learning? What if they could step you through their thinking thinking and tell you exactly how they were feeling? What if they could make decisions about what learning was captured in assessment? – Good news my friends! They absolutely can. All you have to do is ask….and listen…and write- super quickly!! In this lecture I will share some examples of teachers working with tamariki who are making meaningful contributions to assessment and we will explore the process teachers used so that you too may be inspired to give the tamariki in your centre a voice too! \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Please read our Terms and Conditions before purchasing.

Authenticity and passion!\nThis was a powerful workshop\, great tools for combining many of the things we need to do – Internal Evaluation\, Planning\, Inquiry and Professional Growth Cycle.  The Roskill South Kaiako made this all very clear in their presentation.\nIt was fantastic. I learnt sooooo much and I can definitely make a huge shift in my practice\, thank you so much.\nI loved Anita’s workshop about Infants and Toddler\, sharing about her center\, it is beautiful and homey. It was lovely to see the some short videos on how children are playing/exploring loose parts and obstacles too. The environment is very important for this age group when we write learning stories ❤️ \nSincerely\, all of today’s presenters were very engaging and spoke very genuine and that made for a very connecting conference.\nThe international flavour and respect shown across various nationalities for each other\nThanks for the organisation and time you and the speakers put into this incredible day   I think we all will have laughed and cried and shared and grown together on that journey.  We were not able to be face to face yet I felt so connected to everyone.  Kia Ora   Aroha nui \nThank you very much to all involved for a very enjoyable\, stimulating conference. I look forward to watching the workshops I have missed and sharing some of my new found ideas and knowledge with my teaching team”\nWow to see these wahine toa – whose readings I devoured as a student – was so inspiring – what sensational meaningful mahi. Ka mau te wehi.\nWith full of respect and awe… thank you for this super conference!\nThank you for a very enriching conference with great speakers telling their stories and experience. Most enjoyable and learned lots of questions to think and reflect on.\nThank you for putting together such a high quality and professionally managed event\, yet still retaining the good old kiwi warm and relaxed atmosphere. Loved it!\nAmazing to hear others journeys and to be revitalized in energy after so many challenges in ECE. So many barriers which often forces us as kaiako to lose our passion and fight…. I am so humbled to share in the amazing knowledge\, aroha\, passion and dedication of all those that contributed today. Amazing \, inspirational\, heartwarming\, uplifting\, gives me enlightenment and replenished my soul as a kaiako and as a European Maori Wahine. As a person\, a spirit\, a peice of the wonderful world of Early Childhood Care and Education which is my life\, my purpose\, my soul\, I am thankful for you all ! 100%\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				KEYNOTE PRESENTATIONS\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Being Curious: An educational agenda for the 21st century\nEmeritus Professor Margaret Carr University of Waikato\, New Zealand\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nRe-imagining Learning Stories: Charting New Territory for the Future\nDr. Annie WhiteAssociate Professor\, Early Childhood StudiesCalifornia State University Channel Islands\, USA\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The Pedagogy of Te Whāriki\, a Pathway to Progress\nBrenda Soutar\, Tumuaki at Te Kōhunga Reo o Mana Tamariki and Dr Lesley Rameka\, Senior Research Fellow at the Faculty of Education\, University of Waikato\n  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD ALL WORKSHOP OPTIONS\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Sharing is not caring \nThe creation of the online content presented throughout this conference is the intellectual property of the presenters.
