Gardening With Tamariki – Online Course
You know gardening can offer rich learning opportunities for children... but knowing where to start, what to grow, and how to link it to your teaching practice can feel overwhelming.
That’s exactly why I created Gardening With Tamariki Online.
Designed specifically for early childhood teachers, this practical online course gives you the confidence, knowledge, and step-by-step guidance to successfully garden with tamaiki in your setting—while naturally connecting your practice to Te Whāriki, sustainability, and the rhythms of Maramataka.
What centre teachers are saying about the programme:
Packed with practical advice, research, and easy-to-follow activities linked to Te Whāriki, this course has been a genuine game-changer for my teaching.

When I first started with Growing Kiwi Gardeners I wasn't much of a gardener. Now I feel like a pro. I feel confident. I know my things will grow now.

The learning is broad in so many areas, I strongly recommend this program as another way to capture and extend children's learning.
