Te Timatanga Hou Kohanga Reo

Welcome to Te Timatanga Hou Kohanga Reo, a leading establishment and point of interest in the beautiful coastal town of Papamoa, New Zealand. Situated at 4 Dunlop Road, our institution is a renowned school that is dedicated to providing a nurturing and culturally rich environment for early childhood education.

At Te Timatanga Hou Kohanga Reo, we take pride in our commitment to preserving and promoting the Māori language and culture. As a kohanga reo, or language nest, we offer a unique immersion experience where children aged 0-5 years are fully immersed in te reo Māori, the indigenous language of New Zealand. Our passionate and experienced teachers ensure that our tamariki (children) receive the highest quality education while fostering a strong sense of cultural identity.

Our institution boasts state-of-the-art facilities designed to cater to the specific needs of young learners. We have spacious and vibrant classrooms, equipped with educational resources that engage children in hands-on learning experiences. Our outdoor play areas are carefully designed to stimulate imagination and promote physical development, allowing our tamariki to explore and connect with nature.

At Te Timatanga Hou Kohanga Reo, we believe in the holistic development of each child. We offer a well-rounded curriculum that not only focuses on academic excellence but also emphasizes the importance of social, emotional, and physical growth. Through a range of activities, such as storytelling, music and movement, arts and crafts, and traditional Māori practices, we encourage children to develop their creativity, problem-solving skills, and confidence.

We understand the significance of strong partnerships between whānau (families) and educators in a child's educational journey. At our institution, we actively involve whānau in the learning process, providing regular opportunities for communication, collaboration, and participation. We believe that by working together, we can create a supportive and inclusive community that nurtures the potential of every child.

Choosing Te Timatanga Hou Kohanga Reo means choosing an institution that values cultural diversity, fosters a love for learning, and instills a sense of pride in Māori heritage. Join us on this exciting educational adventure and give your child the best start in their educational journey.
