Te haerenga ki te kura Getting to school
"I think it's great getting them out in the fresh air and being part of the community that we're in" – Parent, Wellington
In our Te Haerenga ki te Kura (Getting to School) theme you’ll find a treasure trove of classroom and whole school activities. You'll find ways to help ākonga (students) discover the mauri (life force/energy) of their neighbourhood, and get practical help for student-led projects that make a difference at the school gate.
Students get to use mapping skills in real life situations, work in groups doing a ‘walkability checklist’ and think about how they keep themselves safe.
There are resources showing how you can use these new skills to help your kura (school) set up a Walking School Bus to get more kids on the Waewae Express!
