Ebbett Park School

Welcome to Ebbett Park School, a renowned establishment located in the beautiful town of Hastings, New Zealand. Situated on Oliphant Road, our primary school is not only a point of interest but also a hub of education and growth for our students.

At Ebbett Park School, we prioritize creating a calm and settled classroom environment, where clear behavior expectations are consistently implemented and monitored. This ensures that our students can learn and thrive without any distractions.

Our leadership team is dedicated to continuous improvement and works seamlessly together, complementing each other's knowledge and skills. They have successfully created an orderly and supportive environment that fosters both learning and well-being for our students.

We have a range of effective processes in place to support acceleration and ensure equity and excellence in education. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to succeed, and we work tirelessly to provide the necessary resources and support for their academic growth.

We strongly believe in the power of partnerships between home and school. We regularly communicate with families, providing them with updates on their child's learning and behavior. We encourage active involvement from parents and caregivers, as we believe that a collaborative approach leads to the best outcomes for our students.

Ebbett Park School is proud to be recognized in the media, both locally and nationally. We have been featured prominently for our achievements and initiatives. We have also received prestigious awards, such as the 2022 NZSL School of the Year, showcasing our commitment to inclusivity and diversity.

In partnership with the Ministry of Education and Morning Kitchen, we provide nutritious lunches for our students. We believe that a healthy body fuels a healthy mind, and we strive to ensure that our students have access to nutritious meals throughout the day.

We are also actively involved in community initiatives. Our students have participated in fundraising events, such as the 'Take It Easy Aotearoa' by the Youthline Supporter squad, raising awareness and funds for the much-needed services for young people in New Zealand. We encourage our community to contribute by texting 'YL' to 5144 to make a $3 donation to Youthline.

We are proud to have Whaea Nora as one of our special Deaf Communicators. She has created an amazing ABC Remix using NZSL (New Zealand Sign Language) during the COVID-19 lockdown, showcasing her creativity and dedication.
