“Teachers use effective strategies to ensure smooth routines and transitions between parts of the day. Very young children are settled and show a strong sense of belonging within the centre whānau. Teachers are highly responsive to their nonverbal cues and gently foster children’s oral language development. Teachers know when to stand back and allow children to freely explore and problem solve.”
