View on mapKua mahi ngātahi Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, ngā whānau, ngā kaiārahi, ngā kaimahi me ngā hapori ki te whakawhanake i ngā tirohanga aromātai e whai wāhi nui ai ki te hāpai i te kawenga takohanga me te whakapaitanga, ki te tautuhi i te ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakapakari ake hoki i te āheinga ki te aromātai. Ka whakarato ngā pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i ngā mōhiohio mātuatua mā ngā hapū me ngā iwi.
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Hūmārie ki Ōpōtiki. He tino hononga ō ngā mema o te whānau ki te hāhi Ringatū me te marae o Te Rere. “Ko te mokopuna te pūtake o te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo.”
I kitea ki te aromātai Mana Whakahaere a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i te Hui-tanguru o tau 2022, e tika ana kia whakapakarihia ake te aromātai hōtaka, kia mōhio ai ngā kaimahi ki te whai pānga o ētahi wāhanga o te hōtaka ki te whakatairanga ake i ngā putanga ki ngā mokopuna. I whakaae te whānau me Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, e tika ana kia mahi tonu ngā kaimahi ki te taha o SELO, o te whānau, o ngā kaihuawaere hoki o te hapori, hei hāpai ake i ngā whakaritenga aromātai o roto.
Ka kitea te tino māramatanga o ngā mokopuna ki te reo Māori me ngā tikanga Māori mā ā rātou wheako ako.
E rumakina ana ngā mokopuna ki tētahi taiao e aro matua ana ki te reo Māori me ngā tikanga. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i ngā rautaki reo e tika ana ki te hāpai i te whakawhanaketanga reo o ngā mokopuna. Ko ētahi o aua rautaki, ko ngā waiata, ko te whāngai kupu, ko te tāruarua, me te tohutohu. E hāpaitia ana te ako a ngā mokopuna i te hanganga me te pūtake o te reo mā ngā karakia me ngā pepeha. Ka whakarato ngā kaimahi i ngā whai wāhitanga mō ngā mokopuna ki te rongo i te reo Māori ki ngā horopaki ōkawa me ngā horopaki ōpaki. E whakawhanake ana te tūmāia o ngā mokopuna ki te whakamahi i te reo Māori.
Ka whai pānga matua te hāhi Ringatū ki te hōtaka akoranga. He whai wāhitanga mō ngā tuākana ki te tū māia me te ārahi i ngā karakia. Kei te mauritau ngā mokopuna, ā, ka kitea tō rātou whakaute ki ngā karakia, ngā pānui, ngā waiata, ngā hīmene, me ngā mōteatea. He ngāwari te reo kōrero o ngā kaimahi, ā, ka whakamihi rātou i ia i te wā i ngā mahi angitu a ngā mokopuna. Ka kitea ngā pūmanawa o ngā tuākana ki te ārahi, i a rātou e manaaki ana, e taunekeneke ana i ō rātou tēina. Ka whakatauira ngā kaimahi i ngā uara o te aroha me te tiaki. Ka whai wāhi atu ngā mokopuna ki ngā taunekeneke e ū ana ki te manaaki i te tangata.
Ko te aronga o te hōtaka, ko ngā atua Māori. Ka hāpai ngā kaimahi i ngā mokopuna ki te ako i ngā ao o ngā atua Māori mā ngā waiata, mā te kori tinana, ā, mā ngā taumahi ako hoki. Ko te toro atu ki te taiao hihiri o waho, e akiaki ana i te tūhura haere, ā, e hāpai ana i ngā mokopuna ki te tūhonohono ki te whenua me ngā taonga māoriori. E puāwai mai ana te ngākau titikaha o ngā mokopuna hei ākonga.
Kia whakatairanga tonu te whānau i ngā whakaritenga o te aromātai o roto, hei whakarahi ake tonu i ngā putanga e whai hua ana ki ngā mokopuna.
I te wā o te aromātai, i tirohia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga ngā pūnaha ki te whakahaere i ngā wāhanga e whai ake nei, arā, ki:
I whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo te taunakitanga e whai ake nei, arā, kia:

The Education Review Office (ERO) in collaboration with whānau, leaders, kaimahi and their communities develop evaluation insights that foster accountability and improvement, identify progress and build evaluation capability. This report reflects their systems, operations and management practices. ERO reports provide important information for hapū and iwi.
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Hūmārie is in Ōpōtiki. Whānau members have strong connections with Te Hāhi Ringatū and Te Marae o Te Rere. “Ko te mokopuna te pūtake o te kaupapa o te kōhanga reo”.
ERO’s February 2022 evaluation of Mana Whakahaere practices found programme evaluation required strengthening for kaimahi to know how successful, aspects of the programme were in improving outcomes for mokopuna. The whānau and ERO agreed kaimahi should continue to work with the SELO (Strengthening Early Learning Oppotunities) for mokopuna, whānau and community facilitators to improve internal evaluation practices.
Mokopuna show an understanding of te reo Māori and tikanga Māori through their learning experiences.
Mokopuna are immersed in an environment where te reo Māori and tikanga Māori are a priority. Kaimahi use appropriate language strategies to support mokopuna language development. These include a range of waiata, prompts, repetition and instruction. Mokopuna are supported to learn about the structure and purpose of language through karakia and pepeha. Kaimahi provide opportunities for mokopuna to hear te reo Māori in formal and informal settings. Mokopuna are developing confidence in their use of te reo Māori.
Te Hahi Ringatu is an integral part of the learning programme. Opportunities are provided for tuākana to confidently lead karakia. Mokopuna are settled and demonstrate respect for karakia, panui, waiata, himene and mōteatea. Kaimahi use gentle tones and consistently praise mokopuna for their successes. Tuākana display leadership qualities as they care and interact with their teina. Kaimahi model values of aroha and tiaki. Mokopuna experience interactions of manaaki-ki-te-tangata.
Atua Māori is the focus of the programme. Kaimahi support mokopuna to learn about the domains of ngā atua Māori through waiata, kori tinana and learning activities. Access to a vibrant outdoor environment encourages exploration and allows mokopuna to connect with the land and natural resources. Mokopuna are emerging as confident learners.
Whānau continue to enhance internal evaluation practices to further increase positive outcomes for mokopuna.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
emotional safety including positive guidance and child protection
physical safety including supervision, sleep procedures, accidents, medication, excursion policy and procedures
suitable staffing including appropriate qualifications, police vetting, ratios
emergency procedures and practices for earthquakes, fire, flood, tsunami and pandemic.
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation:

Kua mahi ngātahi Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga, ngā whānau, ngā kaiārahi, ngā kaimahi me ngā hapori ki te whakawhanake i ngā tirohanga aromātai e whai wāhi nui ai ki te hāpai i te kawenga takohanga me te whakapaitanga, ki te tautuhi i te ahu whakamua, ā, ki te whakapakari ake hoki i te āheinga ki te aromātai. E hāngai ana tēnei pūrongo ki ā rātou pūnaha, ki ā rātou whakaritenga, me ā rātou mahi whakahaere. Ka whakarato ngā pūrongo a Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga i ngā mōhiohio mātuatua mā ngā hapū me ngā iwi.
E tū ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Hūmārie ki Ōpōtiki. He tino hononga ki waenga i ngā mema o te whānau, ki te hāhi Ringatū, ā, ki te marae hoki o Terere. Kua mahi ngātahi te whānau - ki te taha anō hoki o te kaiwhakarato SELO – ki te whakapakari i te āheinga o te whānau ki te whakahaere i ngā whakaritenga.
E whakarato ana Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Hūmārie i tētahi taiao e poipoi ana, e whakatauira ana hoki i te whanaungatanga.
E tautuhi ana te tūtohinga i ngā tukanga, ā, ka whakaraupapa hoki i te aronga nahanaha me te huarahi mō te whānau. Ka noho rā, ko te reo Māori te kaupapa matua e pou here ana i ngā whakaritenga katoa o te kōhanga reo. “Whāngaihia te reo Māori mai i te kōhanga atu ki te kāinga.” Ka whakatakotohia hoki ki te tūtohinga, ko te hītori o te kōhanga reo, tae atu ki ngā mātāpono me ngā kawenga o Te Korowai. Kua whakatinanahia te mahere rautaki ki Te Ara Tūāpae, ā, e whakatakoto ana i te huarahi mō te whakawhanake tonutanga o te kōhanga reo mō meāke nei. Ka tāutu te mahere mahi i ngā mahi me ngā tāngata e pīkau ana i aua kawenga, hei hāpai i te ahu whakamua. E whakaarohia ana ngā matea o ngā mokopuna mō te pae tawhiti.
E pou here ana te whanaungatanga i te āhua o ngā mahi a te whānau ki te whakahaere i ngā whakaritenga o tō rātou kōhanga reo. He pai te whai wāhi mai a te whānau ki te kōhanga reo. Tū ai ngā hui i ia marama, ā, he kaha te tūhonohono mai ki ngā hui mā te Huitopa. Kua whakatakotohia ngā kaupapa here me ngā tukanga e pā ana ki te hauora, te haumaru, me ngā kaimahi, ā, e hāngai katoa ana ki ngā herenga ā-ture. He auau ngā pūrongo, puta noa i ngā whakahaeretanga. He mārama ngā rēhita a te whānau, ā, ka whakahoungia i ia te wā kia noho mātua ai te hauora me te haumaru o ngā mokopuna. Kua whakapai ake te whānau i ō rātou pūkenga ki te whakahaere i ngā whakaritenga o te kōhanga reo. He mahinga ngātahi, he mahinga whakatōpū hoki te whakatau a te whānau i ngā whakaritenga.
Kua whakaritea ngā mahi e pā ana ki te whakahaeretanga o ngā kaimahi. He mārama, he matawhānui hoki ngā kirimana tūranga mahi a ia kaimahi, ā, ka hāngai hoki ki ngā herenga ā-ture. E āta whakatakoto ana ngā tuhinga tūranga mahi i ngā pūkenga e tūmanakohia ana ki ngā kaimahi. Ka whakatutukihia ngā arohaehae kaimahi e te whānau me ngā mema o te komiti, ki te taha hoki o te kaiako. Ka hāngai ngā taipitopito kōrero o roto ki te whakawhanaketanga ngaio i whakatutukihia ai e ngā kaimahi, ngā whakawhitinga kōrero, me ngā whāinga āhua mahi i whakaaetia ai mō te ahu whakamua tonu. Ka kite ngā mokopuna i ngā hononga e whai pūtake ana ki waenga i te whānau.
He tukanga ā ngā kaimahi mō ngā mahi whakamahere me te aromatawai. Ka tāutu te mahere ako i te kiko o te hōtaka, i ngā rautaki mō te whakapuakitanga, ā, i ngā rauemi hoki. Ka whakamahi ngā kaimahi i te whānuitanga o ngā tūmomo huarahi aromatawai e kapo atu ana i ngā wā ako o ngā mokopuna, me tā rātou ahu whakamua. Ko ētahi o aua huarahi, ko ngā kitenga, ngā pūkete, me ngā paki ako. E whai hua ana ngā mokopuna nā ngā taumahi i whakamaheretia ai.
Me titiro ki te aromātai hōtaka. Hui ai ngā kaimahi i ia te wā, engari he iti noa ngā mōhiohio e tohu ana i ngā wāhanga e whakapai ake ai i te hōtaka akoranga. Ko ngā whakaritenga ka whai ake, ko te whakaaro huritao ki ngā tūāhuatanga i whai hua ai, ki ērā hoki kīhai i whai hua, ā, ki ngā āhuatanga ka whāia tonuhia ki te whakapai ake i te kounga o te hōtaka. Ka whakatairangatia te ako a ngā mokopuna ki ngā tukanga aromātai whai hua.
I te wā o te arotake, i tirohia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga ngā pūnaha ki te whakahaere i ngā wāhanga e whai ake nei, arā, ki:
I whakawhanakehia e Te Tari Arotake Mātauranga me te whānau o te kōhanga reo te taunakitanga e whai ake nei, arā, kia mahi tonu te whānau ki te taha o te kaiwhakarato SELO, kia hāpaitia ā rātou mahi i roto i te aromātai hōtaka.

This report reflects their systems, operations and management practices. ERO reports provide important information for hapū and iwi.
Te Kōhanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Hūmārie is in Ōpōtiki. Whānau members have strong connections with the Hāhi Ringatū and Terere Marae. The whānau along with SELO provider have worked collaboratively to strengthen whānau capability to manage operations.
Te Kohanga Reo o Te Whare Aroha o Te Humarie provides an environment that nurtures and models whanaungatanga.
The Tūtohinga defines processes and sets out a planned approach and direction for whānau. It prioritises te reo Māori as the kaupapa and underpins all practices in the kōhanga reo “Whangaihia te reo Māori mai i te kōhanga atu ki te kainga”. It also includes the history of the kōhanga reo and the principles and obligations of Te Korowai. The strategic plan is informed by Te Ara Tuapae and provides direction for the future development of the kōhanga reo. The action plan identifies actions and delegated individuals with responsibilities to support progress. Mokopuna future needs are considered.
Whanaungatanga underpins how the whānau manage their kōhanga reo operations. There is good whānau involvement and participation in the kōhanga reo. Monthly hui are held regularly and well attended via Zoom. Health, safety and personnel policies and procedures are in place and align to legislation. There is regular reporting across operations. Whānau registers are clear and updated to ensure the health and safety of mokopuna is prioritised. The whānau have improved their capability to manage kōhanga reo operations. Decision making processes amongst whanau are collective and collaborative.
Personnel management practices are in place. Kaimahi individual employment contracts are clear, well detailed and align to legislation. Job descriptions provide clarity of kaimahi expected competencies. Kaimahi appraisals are completed by whānau and committee members alongside the kaiako. Comments include kaimahi professional development undertaken, discussions and further agreed performance goals toward improvement. Mokopuna observe meaningful relationships amongst whānau.
Kaimahi have processes in place for planning and assessment. The mahere ako identifies programme content, strategies for implementing and resourcing. Kaimahi use a range of assessment methods that capture moments of mokopuna learning and progress. These include observations, portfolios and learning stories. Mokopuna benefit from planned activities.
Programme evaluation requires attention. Kaimahi hui regularly, however there is little information to show areas for improving the learning programme. Next steps are to reflect what the successes were, what didn’t work and what needs to happen to improve the quality of the programme. Mokopuna learning is enhanced through effective evaluation processes.
During the evaluation, ERO looked at systems for managing the following areas:
ERO and the kōhanga reo whānau developed the following recommendation that whānau continue to work alongside the SELO provider for support with programme evaluation.
