Merivale School

Welcome to Merivale School, located in Tauranga, New Zealand. Our school is situated on Kesteven Avenue, a vibrant and welcoming community that is also known as Tutarawananga. This area holds great historical significance for the local iwi, as it was the first place in Tauranga Moana where learning took place.

At Merivale School, we continue this tradition by placing a strong emphasis on learning. We believe that by putting learning first, our students can achieve their full potential. We are passionate about education and strive to create an environment where students can enjoy success and face challenges with confidence. Our school values teamwork and we all thrive on being part of a supportive community.

Our vision is to be the best we can be. This vision is reflected in our core values, one of which is expecting the best from ourselves and each other. We are committed to providing our learners with the best educational outcomes, which is why we constantly seek to improve and enhance our offerings. From state-of-the-art digital technology to comprehensive learning support services, we are dedicated to meeting the needs of our students, staff, whanau (family), and community.

While our primary focus is on developing future leaders and role models, we also believe in having fun along the way. We believe that a positive and enjoyable learning environment is crucial for fostering creativity, curiosity, and a love for learning.

Merivale School is currently on an exciting journey, and we invite you to be a part of it. Whether you are a student, parent, teacher, or member of the community, we welcome you to join us in shaping the future of education. Nau mai, haere mai.
