Hello Parents / Caregivers. 

As Auckland is at Alert Level 3 again for the next 7 days.  Govt have asked for children  to stay at home. Essential workers’ children can come to school,  but it is safer to keep all family at home in their own bubble. Let me know on Monday if you are an essential worker. 09 2665558. 

Teachers will give all students learning tasks for home . They will text or email parents to inform them of this work for your child. If you do not get contacted— please text me your name and number or email address and I will contact your child’s teacher to sort.( Principal  0274368029.) School will open again for all students when we move to Alert Level 2. 

Take care and stay safe.

We are a large multicultural Primary School situated in Manurewa, a southern suburb of Auckland, New Zealand.

We provide educational programmes in several different languages. Our school’s Philosophy is under-pinned by the strong belief in nurturing a student’s first language as a "bridge” to quick and effective learning of the second language {English}. This then enables students to reach their fullest potential in learning more quickly.

Our school is well known for its successes for students who are learning in two languages and a wide variety of educators visit our school from New Zealand and other Countries. They come to view our bilingual practices, engage with our teachers for proven teaching methods and to experience our school’s assessment tools for 1st Language learning.

Thank you for visiting our school’s website.  We hope you enjoy the journey through our site. To find more information click on the tabs down the left hand side of the Homepage. Existing parents can view their child’s work, progress and future goals by clicking on the ePortfolio tab.
