Pumanawa (Te Reo for ‘strength in learning’ or ‘gifted’) is our specialist enrichment and extension learning programme at Boulcott School. Like-minded students learn in small groups and workshops to continue to enhance, enrich and extend their learning.
At Boulcott School we have a broad definition for gifted education and students can be identified throughout the year with a holistic approach including input from parents, teachers (past and current), learning abilities, strengths analysis and social behaviour. Students can participate in a variety of short and long term workshops (sometimes more than one) that are flexible towards the needs of the participating students.
