New Bike Track at Seymour Kindergarten

Tamariki at Seymour Kindergarten celebrated the opening of their new bike track on Tuesday morning.  It looks amazing, and will clearly be well-used and encourage the tamariki into another outdoor space. This is the first project to have support from the Marlborough Enviroschools Action Fund alongside some great community and business input.  Applications for the action fund are open until the end of this term. We encourage you to work with your students to put in an application, and look forward to seeing more innovative ideas....

Marlborough Kindergartens celebrate Matariki at dawn

Marlborough Kindergartens celebrated Matariki with a special event at Monkey Bay early last Sunday morning.

The celebration, which is in its third year, was the culmination of all of the learning and celebrations that have been going on at individual kindergartens throughout June.   It is wonderful to see our tamariki, whānau and kaiako coming together for this very special New Zealand celebration.  We would love to hear about other celebrations that happened around Marlborough...
