Bear Park’s Image of the Teacher
As teachers, we acknowledge and celebrate the identity, culture, and individuality that each child and their whānau share within our learning community.
We view ourselves as co-learners and reflective researchers who actively listen and provoke intellectual dialogue alongside ākonga (students).
Within our educational environments, children actively engage in authentic and meaningful learning experiences that evoke wonder, joy and a love for lifelong learning.
