St Joseph’s Catholic School Takapuna

Welcome to St Joseph’s Catholic School Takapuna, located at 2 Taharoto Road in Auckland, New Zealand. As a primary school and point of interest, we strive to inspire children through Catholic Education to love God, love learning, and fully give of themselves.

With a rich history dating back to 1846, our school has close links to Bishop Pompallier, Eruera Patuone, and the Mercy Sisters. The first school on this site was St Mary’s Industrial School, followed by the establishment of St Joseph’s as an orphanage and small school in 1893.

Our institution is deeply rooted in the Mercy Charism, with our values and motto reflecting this important aspect of our identity. We maintain strong connections with the Mercy Sisters, ensuring that their legacy continues to guide our educational approach.

At St Joseph’s Catholic School Takapuna, we embrace a modern outlook and our facilities and teaching practices reflect this. Our learning spaces are beautifully designed, vibrant, and conducive to collaborative and innovative teaching and learning experiences.

Surrounded by extensive grounds adorned with lovely trees and gardens, our campus provides a variety of playing areas for sports and physical exercise. We believe in the importance of a holistic education that nurtures both the mind and body.

Furthermore, we foster close links with the parish and priests, with the church conveniently located on the same campus. This connection allows us to integrate faith into our daily activities and provides a strong spiritual foundation for our students.

Enrollment at our school is highly sought after, so we recommend considering it well in advance. St Joseph’s Catholic School Takapuna is committed to providing a nurturing and supportive environment where each child can thrive academically, spiritually, and socially.
