Letter from Mrs Turner


Dear parents,

Wow, can you believe that the children of E/Learning have just completed their first year of school. Its been a very special one for all, its my fourth year as a New Entrant/ Year one teacher, and for most of you, your first child beginning their educational journey . I am honored that I have been able to be one of their first teachers on the start of their schooling journey.

I wanted to personally thank you for making my year teaching your child truly special, its been really incredible being part of our “ school” family and watching each child develop into individuals, learning to read, write, count, make friends and navigate themselves around the grounds at Arahoe. Which is a feat in itself!

I am so proud of each of the students of E/L. They are all incredible "little people" which bring so much joy, zest, enthusiasm and determination to every task they set their minds too. Its been delightful watching their personalities develop into leaders, facilitators,  performers, carers, historians, sporting stars and architects.  I know that where ever their learning journey takes them they will go on to achieve great things.

Jaimee and I are so grateful for all the support and assistance you and your families have offered to us. The stronger the family support base allows the children and parent teacher relationships to thrive, which in turn leads to the most rewarding outcome for all. 

The blog will stay active for the next 6 months, to give you time to copy over the photos and videos you may like. Its been a great tool to connect with all of you and to show you what the " life of a five year old is at school". 

I wish you all a very happy holiday season with your family. If you would like to touch base, and  or keep me in the loop of how your child is going please email me. Its really lovely to know how they are going teachingmrsturner@gmail.com

Once again thank you for making this year a fantastic one, I really valued all the aroha you showed me especially over the last week, saying good bye. The chats, thoughtful cards and gifts have been heart warming. 


With so much love,

Dana Turner
