The importance of a good routine

The start of a new term can feel like a fresh beginning for us all! Supporting tamariki with predictable routines helps them feel secure, confident, and ready for a bright, manahau (joy-filled) day!

A great morning and evening routine:

Gives tamariki a clear idea of what to expect
Reduces stress for everyone
Provides predictability that can be especially reassuring for anxious tamariki
Builds confidence and a sense of responsibility
Makes transitions easier and less rushed
Creates a calmer start and end to the day

We love this routine chart design from My Party Design which tamariki can create at school, or at home and feel super sorted!
