Eros Report
Purpose of an ERO report
The Education Review Office (ERO) is the government department that reviews early childhood services in New Zealand. ERO’s reports document the findings of an early childhood service’s education review and provide information for parents, early childhood services and communities.
Each report comments on the early childhood centre, its strengths and, if necessary, next steps for development. The report also tells you when ERO is likely to review the center again. High performing early childhood services are reviewed less often than those early childhood services in need of improvement.
Lincoln Rd
Infants and toddlers play in a calm, well-resourced and attractive environment. There is a warm, inclusive culture in the centre. Teachers' caring interactions promote children's wellbeing and foster a sense of belonging. Transitions and routines are unhurried. Teachers' respectful care nurtures toddlers' self-help skills, fosters their independence, and reflects the RIE philosophy. Teachers respond to infants' communication cues.
