We often talk about being a restorative school - what does that mean? How do we use this approach to shape our interactions with learners? What might it mean for parents and whānau? Our first 'Kai and Korero' is focussed on explaining the philosophy behind restorative practice and sharing the process that we use to support students to explore the harm of their actions.
Come and share a cuppa and a light breakfast nibble with us - we look forward to seeing you there!
