Polish School in Tauranga

It is crucial for Polish emigrant’s families who come to New Zealand, to ensure that their children can still communicate, speak and understand Polish language. It is not easy when you live overseas. At home usually one of the parents is Kiwi. At school and with friends it’s all English, and what about Polish?
Mrs. Magdalena James, a music teacher in Tauranga, initiated the first Polish school starting with her own 4 kids. Every Sunday playing piano, she begins her class with Polish language with songs and games.
A high positive energy surrounds students from 3 to 12 years of age. All are friends and all try to speak Polish. My CMC massage lesson was very well received – all enjoyed massage colleagues and parents.

It was a real pleasure to resonate with them while sharing the experience in the field of Bonding and Attachment. Our approach is the same. Children need
loving touch to thrive. Beginning of cooperation just started with www.aspire2.co.nz
