Kia ora Koutou,
My name is Ariana Batstone and I am a third year student teacher, I have been working as an early childhood teacher since 2017.
My teaching philosophy centers around Haoura, the wellbeing of the child and building a strong foundation for becoming a lifelong learner. I live in the Malvern Hills area with my husband and four children who attend the local schools.
I feel privileged to have the opportunity to support your tamariki on their learning journey. I believe it is important to develop and maintain effective relationships with tamariki and whānau to support children’s learning as individuals.
I look forward to working in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to provide your child with experiences where they can blossom.
Ko te ahurei o te tamaiti ō tātou mahi, let the uniqueness of the child guide our work.
