🎉 Celebrating International Day of Play 🎉

On the surface, play may seem like it’s all about having fun, but for children, it’s so much more. Through play, young children learn about the world around them while developing essential life skills. From problem-solving and communication to creativity, confidence, and expressing ideas, play lays the foundation for lifelong learning and development. 🌱✨

🌏 Moving to a new country can be both exciting and a little daunting. One of the best ways to feel at home is to immerse yourself in the local culture, traditions, and people that make New Zealand unique.

Over the past few days, our international learners have been doing exactly that! They enjoyed a visit to the Auckland War Memorial Museum and today learnt the beautiful art of Harakeke weaving.

These experiences help build connections, create lasting memories, and deepen understanding of New Zealand's history, culture and heritage. 💙

Moving Smart... What a great reminder of the importance of movement in children's development.

Cavalli College student teachers are so lucky to engage with the Movement Matters course as part of their learning journey, helping them better understand the connection between movement, brain development, learning, and wellbeing.

Thank you, Moving Smart, for continuing to share such valuable insights with the sector. We are excited to partner together in supporting the next generation of teachers.
