Hello neighbours. What an honour to be a part of this group and to be able to introduce myself to you today.

My name is Laetitia, more easily pronounced as La-teach-a. I am a creative educator who is passionate about helping children navigate challenges in their learning. My philosophy has driven my career pathway of 20 years in the classroom, consultancy and in research to design and create a new approach in teaching and learning.

Today, I have launched my website www.actionstationslearning.com... offering families FREE bite size tutorials on how we learn, ways to motivate learning and valuable information designed to empower you and your child’s success in literacy and numeracy.

You can also CONNECT with others to collaborate, share, inspire or ask your questions about how to support your child’s learning at home.

Action Stations Learning is a different approach to learning literacy and numeracy that works with the brain through movement, choice, and focusing on connections.​ Created for primary school children but also to ignite learning minds in older children.

We are just new and growing daily but would love for you to visit;

In doing so a man came on the line and repeated what the woman told me. He then asked me the balance on my credit card, as I was sitting at the computer … View moreBeware! I got a phone call (kiwi voice), said they were the bank and someone had drawn out $1500.00 on my credit card. Would I please push 1. In doing so a man came on the line and repeated what the woman told me. He then asked me the balance on my credit card, as I was sitting at the computer doing banking and could see nothing pending I smelt a rat so I told him $2.00, he then swore at me and hung up. The number was 00006143847293. They are at it again, Kiwi style. BE CAREFUL!!!!! Bank accounts not computers, Kiwi voices not foreigners.
