Literacy in Years 0-3 from 2024

Nicola Eka —

With the changes to the New Zealand Curriculum - Te Mātaiaho Three Kings will be altering how they teach Literacy from 2024.

As you will have read over the past few weeks in the newsletter, Te Mātaiaho is structured in learning phases spanning Years 0-3 and 4-6. Phase 1 incorporates Koru which from 2024 will include our Year 3 classes.

With the focus of this phase being on students "Thriving in environments rich in literacy and numeracy" and in response to the science of learning Three Kings will be changing their approach to literacy. We have engaged the support of an outside agency to guide us on this journey.

To learn more about this exciting change, what this means for literacy learning at Three Kings and how you can help and support at home we will be holding a Parent Information session immediately before our 2024 Welcome Picnic. Please join us in the library at 5 pm on Tuesday 13th February 2024.
