ABOUT US

Wellbeing

A Culture of Wellbeing

At Taradale Intermediate, hauora/wellbeing means to ‘flourish’ - feeling good and functioning well.  Our learning environment is a safe and calm space where we can grow our mana through all aspects of the Mana Model.

Mitey

The Sir John Kirwan Foundation has designed Mitey with NZ teachers and the University of Auckland to provide an evidence-based approach to teaching mental health education to primary and intermediate aged children.

It is built around the NZ curriculum and embedded into everyday learning, to ensure children are equipped with the age-appropriate skills and knowledge they need to recognise and respond to mental health issues in both themselves and others before they enter teenage years.

Mitey has successfully implemented its approach to schools throughout New Zealand.  At Taradale Intermediate we are working towards integrating mental health education into our daily timetable.
