Our educators have been selected for their knowledge of early childhood education, their expertise in providing appropriate educational programmes, their compassion for children and their philosophy of education and early childhood development. At Kauri Learners we encourage professional development so our educators can keep uptodate with what is happening in the early childhood sector. We aim to provide a service where parents are free to concentrate on the day at hand, secure in the knowledge that their children are not only being provided with healthy meals, but also their emotional and developmental needs of their children are being met.

Sarah James
Educator - Diploma in Teaching (ECE) Kia Ora, I am Sarah James. I'm a registered early childhood teacher, with a Bachelor of Sport and Leisure Studies and a Diploma of ECE. My family and I have relocated from Wellington to the Coromandel. We now live in Matarangi. We have two children who are 5 and 7. I have over ten years teaching experience in school and kindergartens in New Zealand and the UK. This includes head teacher experience and experience with children with special needs. Getting to know children as individuals and understanding their uniqueness drives my teaching practice. I believe in creating a safe, stimulating and fun learning environment where children feel secure to learn and grow. My teaching practice focuses on developing positive learning dispositions, foundations skills, inquisitiveness, imagination and independence. I work through conflicts and challenges closely with children helping them to come up with their own solutions, enabling them to develop valuable social skills and independence. I love being a teacher and look forward to getting to know you and your children. |
