BRIDGING SCHOOL
Activities:
Holiday Activities
School holiday programme to link with main school activities
to develop their thinking skills and creativity.
New Zealand Curriculum based educational paper.
The bridging school orders NiE papers for all levels from Fairfax.
This is of great benefit to the children as they learn about various
topics covered in the New Zealand curriculum throughout the year.
The classes are conducted in 3 different levels so that each
child is studying in their school level.
First Language Maintenance
To maintain Tamil, our mother tongue, the language is taught
from Year 1 and continues up to Year 13 and there are all levels
of learners. All the material used to teach Tamil at the bridging
school is especially ordered in from overseas as it is unavailable
here.
Culture Maintenance
As part of maintaining the Tamil culture and to encourage children
to develop confidence, dance is taught after class on a regular
basis. All students, from the play school, to the older children
take part. We also perform at several Tamil programs and Auckland
City events on a regular basis. These programs include Refugee
Council of New Zealand Multicultural day, Auckland City Council
Deewali Festival and International Multicultural Day.
