Come and join our vibrant team. We are a large Full Primary School with a supportive staff. Our kura is a Green-Gold Enviro School. As a community, we celebrate diversity and value strong relationships with our ākonga and whānau. 

Classroom teachers are provided a wide range of quality professional development and leadership opportunities. They are supported to be the best teacher they can be, both personally and professionally. We are part of Te Kāhui Ako o Taranaki Mohoao, which further strengthens professional learning opportunities for our teachers.
