Uplands Kindergarten
At Uplands Kindergarten, the teachers keep up to date with research from New Zealand and around the world. Research from Whitebread in the UK states that children who are emotionally secure, curious, and playful, with well-developed oral language and self-regulation abilities, will be most enabled to develop as powerful learners and emotionally and socially healthy individuals. ECE settings which support these developments are characterized by emotionally warm and supportive social interactions, the provision of developmentally challenging and playful learning opportunities, dialogic and collaborative talk, and support for child-initiated activity and children’s autonomy.
Age Well Kiwi
We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.
With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.
We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.
If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
