Pyjama Day!
What a Fun day it is to be able to show up in your Pjs! The kids always have so much fun on PJ day.
This year we decided to help Harcourts Timaru reach their goal of 250 Pairs of Winter Pjs for Tamariki in our community. What an amazing cause. We managed to get roughly 30 pairs for them! What an awesome achievement.
Our friends at Harcourts raised over 250 pairs! Ka Pai Timaru!
Creative Corner Library
You may have noticed this cool funky bookshelf in reception. Our amazing Chrissie has set up a Creative Corner Library for our tamariki. Tamariki can take a book home to read and return it for another! What an awesome idea Chrissie!
Matariki Evening
We would like to say a huge Thank You to everyone who attended our Matariki Evening. The Tamariki and Kaiako all had such an amazing time. We look forward to doing more evenings like this.
Free oral health care for young people in nz
In New Zealand, free dental care is available for children aged 0-18. Here’s how it can be accessed:
Tamariki 0-4 years
At birth children are usually enrolled with Community Dental Service via the new-born enrolment process. Children are first seen by community dental services by 2 years of age, but parents can get in contact before this if there are any concerns. Pre-school children have their teeth checked and treated in a community dental clinic. Children should have their teeth checked each year after their first visit. To enrol or book an appointment for a pre-schooler call 0800 846 983 or email commdental@cdhb.health.nz.
