Primary school support

Learning & participation journeys

The core of Kia Hākinakina continues to be a teacher support model designed to positively impact curriculum settings through play, game play and fundamental and functional movement activation and support.

Our model includes

Supporting Kaiako, every step of the way

  • Teacher support mechanisms
  • Alignment to PE planning
  • Integration of curriculum aligned leadership approaches
  • Joint understanding of outcomes
Free game resources

Close to 50 Game Play resources

Non-sport specific games for our workforce and Kaiako in our supported settings, designed to align to a non-linear pedagogical approach to learning and skill acquisition.

Our schools

Partner schools

Across 2023, Kia Hākinakina formed partnerships and was directly engaged with these school settings. Each school received term-on-term weekly (or fortnightly, depending on need) activation for their entire teaching staff and student populations.
