Our aim is to prepare children for the future by equipping them with the skills to learn, implementing the key aspects of the New Zealand curriculum.


WHAT SOFTWARE IS USED AT TURUTURU SCHOOL?

Seesaw Years 1 to 6 for caregivers and children.
Google G Suite for Education Years 4 to 6.
School App mostly for providing information for caregivers.

 

DOES MY CHILD NEED TO BRING THEIR OWN DEVICE?

No. 

We are very lucky at Turuturu School to be well resourced with devices. 


DOES THAT MEAN THAT MY CHILD WILL BE STARING AT A SCREEN ALL DAY?

Absolutely not. 

Digital technology is important, but so are things like learning to kick a ball, swim, be a friend, share, and problem solve with others! Children have access to devices on a timetable. This means about 3 sessions per week.


HOW IS MY CHILD KEPT SAFE?

We have a secure network that filters websites and can track history.
Our children are taught what is expected as part of being a digital citizen at Turuturu School.
