It is week 6, middle of term two. This week we have our toolkits with Manaiakalani that all staff are opting into. It has been great to build leadership capacity within our school as we have two teachers that are part of the online toolkits by sharing their knowledge with others.
Part of our strategic planning is building up leadership capability and capacity within our school, along with digital learning.
I am taking part in the online learning toolkits. It is good to walk alongside staff in their learning journey and keep up with new learning myself. My goal is to streamline my workflow so that I am more efficient and effective.
This week our staff are not meeting together as we have reports due, online toolkits and planning demands. It is interesting as we move together on the online learning platform how I miss the kanohi te kanohi - face to face interactions. We need to be careful that we are not too busy to interact with others. Online emails and interactions online do not have the benefit of reading how people are feeling and picking up on body language. Having said that, I am a true believer that our online platform is a way forward to streamline our workflow and enable us to be more efficient.

Term 2, Kahui Ako
Kahui Ako
Kahui Ako Strategic Plan
Discussion around next steps:
- ECE/early childhood teachers getting together around "play based" learning
- monthly brochure is going to be circulated
- Richard Murray is working on a website for the Kahui Ako - think about what the site is going to be used for. Learning is paramount
- Whai korero priority that our students can korero, waiata etc. Next steps to scope what the school needs are.
- Think of our place - Maori and Dalmation
Workstreams:
- Iwi/school partnership (originally done in Rotorua very successful)
- Te Ao Maori and support that we need for this
Student Group for Kahui Ako
Always being run by the students. Start with student agency. Try to move towards over-arching goals that we are working on. This will happen in term 3 of 2019.
Teacher Hub
How can we grow our own teachers in rural areas.
Across School Teachers Report
Transition meeting has been attended and collaboration is coming through as the key
Student survey shows the data is consistently across the Kahui Ako in early childhood, primary and secondary. Interesting that the same issues are coming up.
Sue Holmes analysed the data from Cognition.
Generally secondary school are showing less student agency, higher at early childhood
Positive to see transition between each school is very high
Students all like learning and feel the teacher treats them fairly.
Next steps
Sharing of learning
Responsiveness to learning
Show case will happen in term 4 - it will be student led.
Inquiry
Really great to see collaboration in action. This kaupapa is being student led and all stakeholders have had a say and are engaged. I am really excited to see opportunities for our teachers and learners. The key aspects that we are focusing on with fluency in Te Reo will now be supported. The power of working as an entire group is exciting.
