Starting school is a big step up.
The Great Kiwi School Day familiarises children and their parents with the structure of the kiwi
school day and puts them at ease with elements of the New Zealand curriculum:
- What do you do at school?
- Who will be there?
- What will I learn?
- What will my classroom be like?
Author and illustrator Donovan Bixley has visited hundreds of schools
across Aotearoa and has created a friendly introduction to the kiwi school day,
gently incorporating the values of the New Zealand school curriculum:
excellence, diversity, teamwork, respect, curiosity, and te ao Maori.
Parents and children about to start school will recognise and identify
with this book, with the theme, 'school is fun'
