WORKSHOP Inclusive Education An inclusive learning environment is one that values the contributions of all students, their families/whānau, and communities. It recognises that every learner is unique and builds on their languages, cultures, and interests; and identifies and removes any barriers to achievement. This workshop will give an insight into Berhampore School’s journey towards having an ‘inclusion for all’ approach in its learning environment and will look at ways this approach can be fostered across networks of schools to benefit all students in its community. Convenor | Anastasia Aukuso-Lolo Anastasia Aukuso-Lolo is a proud born and bred Wellingtonian. She is currently Deputy Principal at Berhampore School and has been for the last five years. As well as being the Deputy Principal at her school, Anastasia also has her hands full as the new entrant teacher. She believes that the successful transitioning of pre-schoolers to school as being fundamental to them and their families feeling included and supported on their child’s first school journey. Successful transitions are those that are planned and implemented by a collaborative team that includes the student, parents, family members and all those involved in the support and education of each student; this includes students with additional needs.

At the very core is relationships and this will be woven throughout the presentation. We will also be taking a look at the Pasifika Education Plan. Convenor | Taime Pareanga Samuel QSM An inspiring leader Taime has grown with the early foundations that education starts at home with the many life lessons that our parents have to teach us.
