About the Kindergarten
Kura Pepe is part of a reorganisation initiative that began at Island Bay Kindergarten at the start of Term 2, 2007.
There are three services running along side each other: Isola (a playgroup which runs each morning), Kura Pepe, and KuraTamaiti (two separate all day license kindergartens with a group size of 30 each) . See Kura Tamaiti and Isola for their sesson times.
Kura Pepe has one session each day, with Isola offering a playgroup each morning in the same space. There is a high level of co-operation between all three services operating on the site which is enhanced by the flexibility of the teachers.
ERO noted recently: “Teachers are building positive relationships with parents and children. A family type atmosphere prevails as the kindergarten has shared enrolment spaces and children of mixed ages attending the sessions. Parents are informed about children’s learning. A variety of information is readily available to parents through informative noticeboards, newsletters and discussions with teachers."
