Ngahinapouri School

Welcome to Ngahinapouri School, a renowned establishment located in the beautiful countryside of Ngāhinapōuri, just 17km southwest of Hamilton city in New Zealand. As a primary school, we strive to provide a nurturing and stimulating learning environment for children aged 5 to 13 years, encompassing years 1 to 8.

Founded in 1877, Ngahinapouri School has a rich history of educational excellence and has been a pillar of the local community for over a century. Our institution is proud to be a point of interest for both locals and visitors alike.

With approximately 160 students, our school offers a close-knit and supportive community. Our diverse student body includes children from farming families, lifestyle block owners, and residents from the surrounding village and district. This unique blend of backgrounds and experiences creates a dynamic and inclusive learning environment.

At Ngahinapouri School, we believe in empowering our students to become seekers, creators, and users of knowledge. Our dedicated team of teachers and staff are committed to fostering a love for learning and helping each child reach their full potential.

Our classrooms, including the innovative centre, are designed to facilitate modern and collaborative learning experiences. The centre combines three traditional teaching areas, providing students with a versatile and engaging space to explore their interests and develop essential skills.

To support the holistic development of our students, we uphold three core values: resourcefulness, respect, and responsibility. Through the principles of Koi te hinengaro (Resourcefulness), Manaaki mai, manaaki atu (Respect), and He ihu oneone (Responsibility), we instill in our students the importance of critical thinking, empathy, and accountability.

Ngahinapouri School is not just a place of education, but a vibrant hub of community engagement. We actively encourage parental and community involvement, recognizing the valuable role they play in shaping our students' educational journey.
