Hybrid Learning for Primary Years
Built Around Choice
Designed with children, for children because who knows learners better than learners themselves? Six-year-olds helped shape the Emi platform, making it intuitive, engaging, and fun for young minds.
Emi is New Zealand’s first hybrid learning model designed specifically for primary-aged students (6–8 years old). It’s schooling reimagined - flexible, personalised, and student-focused. Students build soft skills and hands-on experiences through in-person learning, while complementing this with a premium online programme tailored to their needs and preferences.
How does it work?
Students who are currently homeschooled or are attending a brick-and-mortar school like Crimson AGE School can now attend two days of online primary school to complement their three days of onsite learning. This seamless blend allows every child to transition easily between online and in-person learning, giving them more choice, more balance, and more opportunity to thrive.
Waitlist now open for 2026 enrolments.
“We’ve absolutely loved being part of Emi so far - my son keeps asking if today’s the day to join in! It’s been engaging, inspiring, and such a joy to watch the teaching and learning unfold from the sidelines. We’re excited to see how it continues to grow.” - Ashley, mom of Reuben (7 years old)
