The Government has announced it will spend an additional $80 million over four years to secure access to early childhood education for the children of beneficiaries.

When we work with a child who has learning difficulties, coordination problems, behaviour issues, hearing difficulties or vision impairment, it is crucial to look further than the obvious.

What conditions impact on their coordination and in what situation is their balance affected?

Enviroschools and Te Aho Tu Roa initiatives have received a financial boost, enabling children across New Zealand to learn about the importance and practical application of sustainable lifestyles.
