About Makara Model School
Welcome to Mākara Model School, a truly special institution located in the breathtaking coastal and semi-rural paradise of Wellington, New Zealand. Nestled amidst native wildlife and flora, our school takes great pride in our Kaitiakitanga responsibilities, fostering a deep connection to and respect for the environment.
At Mākara Model School, our facilities are designed to provide a dynamic learning environment. With four classrooms, including a brand new build and the original school house, which has been recently relocated and transformed into our senior classroom, we offer a range of spaces for students to thrive. Our expansive grounds feature exciting amenities such as a flying fox, sandpit, large bike track, playground, vegetable gardens, chicken coop, and even our very own swimming pool - perfect for those scorching summer days!
We believe in the power of experiential learning and encourage our students to explore their surroundings. Our children climb trees, build huts, participate in sports activities, and develop a deep love for animals and the environment. Gardening and exploring the bike track are also popular pastimes, fostering a sense of discovery and adventure.
At Mākara Model School, we prioritize collaboration and mutual learning. Through the practice of Tuakana Teina and Āko, our older students mentor and guide our younger pupils, creating a supportive and nurturing environment where learning becomes a shared experience.
Our dedicated staff members are passionate about providing rich and meaningful learning experiences. They strive to create lasting memories and empower children to become confident and capable individuals. With strong ties to the local community, our learning extends beyond the classroom. We actively participate in community activities such as tree planting, waterway monitoring, beach cleanups, and pest eradication, allowing our students to make a positive impact in the world around them.
Located just over the hill from the suburb of Karori in Wellington, Mākara Model School offers a unique educational experience that we are immensely proud of. We warmly welcome inquiries for enrollment and visits to our school. Please don't hesitate to reach out and discover the wonders of Mākara Model School.
Ngā Mihi Nui,
