At Kairanga School we understand that parents recognise the importance of “family” and so we approach education with this in mind. The following points describe the unique characteristics of our school:

Partnership with Parents:
Our skilled and dedicated teachers work with parents, providing detailed feedback on your child as a learner and opportunities for families to be involved.

A Nurturing Environment:
With smaller class sizes, our caring teachers are better able to devote individual attention to your child’s education. As a smaller school we will get to know your child as an individual and recognise their talents.



A Family Atmosphere:
Through our buddy systems and school houses, your child will develop strong relationships with children of all ages.

Family Values:
We value honesty, integrity, respect, responsibility, perseverance, empathy and cooperation.

A Variety of Learning Experiences:
From academic to sporting to cultural, our unique rural setting enables all children to participate in a wide variety of activities. Each unit of work has aspects of Education Outside The Classroom and Social Action – teaching our pupils that learning is related to the real world.

Close to home:
Situated within 3 minutes of the city boundary.
