Programme for Gifted Children to open in Tauranga
The New Zealand Centre for Gifted Education is a registered charity that supports and enriches gifted young people around New Zealand. They are exploring the possibility of opening a MindPlus programme in Tauranga in the near future. This is a one day school where children can work with a specialist teacher outside of the mainstream classroom.
This is a fantastic opportunity for the Tauranga community and they are holding an information session next week. The school will be located at a classroom in central Tauranga, however the information session for Parents will be held at Tahatai Coast on Tuesday July 2nd at 5.30pm.
If you know of a family of gifted children, please forward the attached flyer to them and hopefully we can bring this incredible programme to our amazing city.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
