Curriculum Overview
The New Zealand Curriculum guides all decisions around curriculum. The Hauroko Valley Primary School Curriculum is structured into three key areas.
  • English
  • Mathematics and Statistics
  • The Hauroko Inquiry / Integrated Curriculum
At Hauroko Valley Primary School English,Mathematics and Statistics are the prioritised learning areas. They are specifically timetabled and taught during optimal learning times with explicit teaching of identified skills and strategies. Teachers will however make links to our Hauroko Inquiry Curriculum to provide an authentic context for learning.
 
 
The Hauroko Integrated Curriculum incorporates the teaching and learning of Science, Social Science, Technology, The Arts, Health and Physical Education and Learning Languages.  It is based around key concepts and enduring understandings that we have identified as being both essential and relevant for our students. These concepts provide natural links across learning areas and ensure coverage of all strands.
                                                 
  
At Hauroko Valley Primary School we developed a 3 year cycle to ensure that there is appropriate coverage of the identified learning concepts and corresponding enduring understandings, ensuring all strands are covered over this period of time. Staff will review every 3 years and choose concepts relevant and essential to our children and environment.
Possible concepts include: Energy, Diversity, Systems, Change, Interactions, Sustainability, and Challenge
