Junior Years 0-3

During years 0-3 ākonga (learners) are developing patterns of behaviour, thinking and interaction that strengthen their conceptions of themselves as social beings, as thinkers, as learners and as contributors to their communities.  In Years 0-3 there is huge growth in learners' foundations in oral language, reading, writing and mathematics - all of which set the foundations for future learning.   During these years ākonga build a rich library of experiences across all learning areas and their experiences nurture their curiosity and questioning.

Middle Years 4-6

In years 4-6 ākonga (learners) increasingly use their reading, writing and mathematics knowledge and skills to support their learning in and across other learning areas, while also continuing to expand their knowledge. Ākonga grow their understanding of how they can transfer their skills across learning areas.  They take part in a growing range of activities that draw on and strengthen their school learning.  Opportunities for participation in a range of interschool activities become available and are encouraged, (these include choir, mathex, sports representation).

Intermediate Years 7-8

Year 7-8 ākonga are emerging adolescents.  They increasingly have a social conscience and seek to connect their learning to the world around them and to make connections to the impact they have on the community and world.  They use their growing inter-disciplinary knowledge to ask questions and seek answers from a range of sources to help solve real-life problems.  Ākonga in years 7 & 8 are purposeful, deliberate, curious and critical thinkers who begin to associate their interests with future pathways for learning and career.  During years 7 & 8 ākonga are encouraged to take up leadership opportunities.
