Humanely dealing with pests this winter.

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

Have you ever had a pest problem? I used to have a pet rat. They are smart, affectionate, clever little things. I'd never want to cause one unnecessary pain or suffering, which is why we've chosen to manage pests in our home with traps.

I'd never want to cause one unnecessary pain or suffering, which is why we've chosen to manage pests in our home with traps. It's not ideal, but it's better - and safer - than poison. I've done a little research on humane, effective vermin control during the wet months, when they like to come in from the cold. Take a look:

Kia ora koutou Greta Point Whānau

It is with much excitement we can introduce our new Center Manager Nardia Whiteman. She joined our center last week and has been focusing on spending time with our beautiful tamariki, our Kaiako and meeting our Whanau – she is also managing to spend some time in the office while getting to know the center!

Nardia was fortunate enough to have a handover with Leslyn – which means the transition has been smooth and already the tamariki are excited to see and chat to Nardia about their day!

Here is an introduction from Nardia:

I have been part of early childhood education over fifteen years and am passionate about providing quality education and believe that it essential that all children have an opportunity to play and learn in a supportive and caring environment.



My personal teaching philosophy includes:

• Collaboration with parents / caregivers to form a strong partnership in the children’s learning

• Create a positive environment that encourages children to take risks and know that their culture, values, and ideas are respected and celebrated by their peers and the teacher.

• Create planning that is fun and is authentic and based on children’s emerging interests so that it is meaningful and relevant.

• Give all children the opportunity to experience success by using a wide variety of teaching approaches, as I am aware all children learn in different ways.

• Allow children’s natural curiosity to guide and direct their learning.

You will see me either in the office or out in the rooms spending time alongside the kaiako and tamariki. I look forward to getting to know you all.

Arohanui

Nardia Whiteman



Nardias personal teaching philosophy sits perfectly with our center philosophy and we are very excited to have her working with us at the center.



Take care Whanau

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a travel story for Stuff about the things that have surprised returning Kiwis about New Zealand. If you have recently returned from overseas or know someone who has, it would be great to hear about the things that have stood out for you, for better or for worse. Whether it's to do with the weather, the cost of things, the public transport, the food, the housing, the people or something else entirely, we'd be keen to hear about it.

Get your shout outs in to our AMI Kind Neighbour Page and you and your nominee could win a $50 Prezzy® Card AND a shout out in your local paper! Check out last weeks below ⬇️⬇️

"My neighbour Ann, a retired special ed teacher, goes the extra mile for her community. On her neighbourhood walks she notices blocked drains, or dangerous pavements on school routes and spends time phoning the Council to get them fixed. She is part of a local group that petitioned for new school crossings on Takanini School Road. She volunteers at the local school for free maths tuition. She sets a really great example of looking out for her community and makes the world a better place."
