Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo

Welcome to Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo, a renowned establishment and point of interest located in Ngāruawāhia, New Zealand. Situated at 9 Edward Street, our institution is a vibrant and dynamic school dedicated to providing a nurturing and culturally rich environment for our students.

Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo is an esteemed kohanga reo, a Māori immersion early childhood education center, where children aged 0-6 years old can flourish and develop a strong foundation in their Māori language and culture. Our institution is deeply committed to preserving and revitalizing te reo Māori, the indigenous language of Aotearoa (New Zealand), and ensuring its transmission to future generations.

At Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo, we believe that language and culture are inseparable, and our dedicated team of qualified teachers are passionate about creating a holistic learning experience for our tamariki (children). Through play-based activities, song, dance, and storytelling, we provide a nurturing and immersive environment where our students can develop their language skills and cultural identity.

Our curriculum is designed to foster the cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development of each child. We prioritize building strong relationships with our students and their whānau (family), recognizing the importance of collaboration and partnership in supporting their educational journey. Our institution values inclusivity and celebrates the diversity of our students and their backgrounds.

Located in the picturesque town of Ngāruawāhia, our institution enjoys a serene and natural setting, providing a tranquil backdrop for learning and growth. Our spacious and well-equipped facilities offer a safe and stimulating environment where children can explore and discover the world around them.

Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo is not only a school; it is a community. We actively engage with local iwi (tribes) and community organizations to foster connections and promote cultural exchange. We believe in the power of collective responsibility and work closely with our wider community to ensure the success and well-being of our students.

Whether you are a parent seeking an immersive Māori education for your child or an educator looking to collaborate and learn from our innovative practices, Te Kaahu Te Kohanga Reo welcomes you with open arms. Join us on this enriching journey as we empower our tamariki to become confident, culturally grounded, and future-ready individuals.
