LEARNING OVERVIEW
LEARNING OVERVIEW
Learning at Waikino School is guided by our strategic plan and is implemented through our learning model and localised curriculum.
LEARNING MODEL
LEARNING MODEL
Our approach to learning aligns to the vision of ākonga being agents of their own learning, with the guidance and support from our Learning Coaches.
LOCALISED CURRICULUM
LOCALISED CURRICULUM
Waikino School utilises a localised curriculum that is a representation of our tangata whenua, and a reflection of our unique surroundings.
We place an emphasis on applying kaitiakitanga in protecting:
TE TAIAO
[The Environment]
Our localised curriculum is a connected learning approach, where core literacy and numeracy components are integrated into various environmental initiatives that our ākonga can engage in.
LEARNING HUBS

Learning Hubs are appropriately named in relation to the journey of Ohinemuri, the awa that flows through the Karangahake gorge.

WAITAWHETA
Flowing from the Kaimai Ranges, Waitewheta is the next river that flows into Ohinemuri river.
