PASSIONATE. WHĀNAU. ENGAGED. PROUD. INSPIRING.


  • Tell us what our values mean to you,

  • showcasing your own team's (or nominating another team's) unique and innovative approach to bringing a Kidsfirst value to life,

  • nominating an individual or team who epitomises the Kidsfirst values, or

  • nominating a Community Champion who embraces the Kidsfirst values.

Every kindergarten has their own stories to tell and we can't wait to hear them all.

It's easy and the recognition of winning an award and some fantastic prizes is so great for you, your team, your parents and whānau.


HERE'S WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO...


There are just 3 easy steps:


ONE

Think about an activity or project which happened between January and December 2020, choose a category and tell us about it. Make it something that's over and above what happens every day. Then click HERE to go to our Connect webpage and complete the online entry form. You might like to write your story up in a word document first - then cut and paste into the online form.


TWO

Enter: Entries open on the 15th of March and close on the 30th of April (Covering the period from Jan - Dec 2020)


Teams can enter online in up to 2 categories, but may only use each story once. The team entering need not be confined to a kindergarten - it may be a project team, a functional team, a professional learning group. Or you can nominate another team's work.


If you'd like to nominate an individual for an award, simply enter online describing how that person models the Kidsfirst values. This is an overall category, covering all five Kidsfirst values.


The Community Champion award recognises those wonderful people who support our kindergartens and go the extra mile.


All entries will be evaluated by a special panel, using a set of judging criteria that distributes a percentage of points to different aspects of the entry.


THREE

Uploading photos/video, and any other supporting information BUT PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE THE APPROPRIATE PERMISSIONS for images as these could then be used in future Kidsfirst promotions.


And then come along to our AGM and help us celebrate those values that help make Kidsfirst Kindergartens special and help to shine a spotlight on the quality that we all work so hard to achieve.

We can't wait to get your entries!
