Our approach

A digital connection between centre and whānau

Little Loves combines face-to-face relationships with a secure online portal. Kaiako can create learning stories linked to Te Whāriki, while families can see approved stories and selected care records for their child.

Te Whāriki integrated

Learning stories and programme planning can be linked to curriculum principles and strands including Mana atua, Mana whenua, Mana tangata, Mana reo and Mana aotūroa.

Whānau partnership

Families stay connected to the learning that matters
