Here in New Zealand we celebrate Waitangi day 6th of February each year.

Please utilise these web site to gain a better understanding of what this Treaty entails (St. George, Brown, & O'Neill, 2008). .

Many countries all over the world have embraced inclusive classrooms; some have annual celebrations to bring the positive message of inclusion to the forefront in media. These messages are supportive and encouraging, for families with children having special needs and highlights the need for communities to share together diversity of learners today. All students must feel included, supported and encouraged, to be part of their right for education, what ever that may be for each individual. Teachers must be supported to create healthy classroom  environments in which all students can achieve their goals for learning (Gribble, 1985).  The official languages here in New Zealand are; English, Te Reo Maori and New Zealand Sign Language, the later two are official Languages as stated in the // New Zealand Curriculum // and therefore we must embrace and continue the use and understanding for healthy relationships to grow for inclusion.
