Our Vision - To have children learn in a peaceful, caring and supportive
environment.

Our Values - Mutual respect - trust - independence - peacefulness.

Our Goals - We believe children learn best when
They have time to explore, experiment and succeed
They are in a prepared environment where they have choice
They learn to trust others and themselves
Their own and others cultures are valued
Teachers teach me to do it myself
Our Programme - Montessori at Macandrew's philosophy is based on the New Zealand
curriculum Te Whariki and the teachings of Maria Montessori.

Children learn in a mixed age family group setting which has a family friendly
atmosphere.

The environment is warm and welcoming and prepared in a way which allows children
choice to learn individually or in groups with the help of responsive supportive
teachers.

Macandrew Bay is a close knit caring community and relationships with parents and
links to home are an important part of our programme. The contribution of parents
and whanau is valued and encouraged.
