Tāhūrangi is here: The new home for online teaching resources

Tāhūrangi, a platform designed to make finding, organising, and sharing curriculum content quicker and easier, went live last week. It’s where all our new curriculum content, resources, and teaching materials will be released in future.
 
Visit Tāhūrangi here:
 
Tāhūrangi – Ministry of Education
 
The release of the new platform may have implications for the way kaiako currently plan their teaching and learning: 

  • All the content related to Te Whāriki: He whāriki mātauranga mō nga mokopuna o Aotearoa early childhood curriculum is available on Tāhūrangi now. 
  • Te Whāriki a Te Kōhanga Reo is still available through a link on the Tāhūrangi homepage, which sends you to Te Whāriki Online. The material there will eventually move onto Tāhūrangi – we will let you know when this is done.

If you have any questions, please email the team at [email protected].

Be prepared in case of a measles outbreak

Measles is one of the most dangerous and contagious diseases in Aotearoa NZ because it spreads easily among people who are not immunised.
 
The best protection against measles is two doses of the MMR vaccine.
 
Te Whatu Ora is encouraging Centres to do two things to help their kaimahi, kaiako and tamariki have a healthy and happy summer:

  •  Check your immunisation register:

Measles information – Ministry of Education 

  • Talk to whānau about immunisation and use this website to find out if they need an MMR vaccine:

Knowing immunisation levels at your Centre makes it easier to manage any cases.
 
Here is some downloadable information about measles that could be displayed in your Centre:
