Pekapekarau Primary School

Welcome to Pekapekarau Primary School, a vibrant institution located at Te Awamutu, Te Rahu Road, 742. As an establishment and point of interest in the community, we take great pride in being a primary school that offers exceptional educational experiences to our students.

At Pekapekarau Primary School, our primary goal is to create an environment that fosters the development of our students' talents, passions, and interests. We believe that their well-being, or hauora, is of utmost importance, and as such, we prioritize building meaningful relationships with both our students and their whanau (families) to enhance their learning journey.

Despite having approximately 200 children, we consider ourselves a "BIG little school." This means that while we may be bigger in size, we still maintain a close-knit community where everyone knows and takes care of each other. Our whānau-oriented approach sets us apart, as we love organizing whole school events such as assemblies, singing sessions, and sporting events, which bring our entire school together.

Open and honest communication is a core value at Pekapekarau Primary School. We believe in keeping our whānau, families, and community well-informed about our activities and initiatives. Apart from our website, you can also stay updated by following our Facebook page, downloading our school app from the android or apple store, and requesting to be added to your child's class seesaw app.
