Team-Up ~ a great resource for parents


Team-Up is a fantastic website designed by the Ministry of Education to provide information, ideas and materials to help parents support their children and get more involved in their education. You may have seen these advertisements on TV led by Team-Up education ambassador and former All Black captain and legend, Tana Umaga. Read about Tana's foundation for under-privileged children. Research shows that parents who are involved in and encourage their child's learning can make a real and positive difference to their child's achievement. We are very lucky at Muritai with parent support for our children and this website offers strong information in down to earth language. The Team-Up programme is part of the edcentre web portal, developed by a group of education sector agencies. their is an excellent user-friendly section on the new curriculum, including health and physical activity. Check out other links to education sites by visiting Team-Up.
