Tena Koutou Katoa - Greetings to you all

Welcome to Te Hapara School - a place of LEARNING, of CARING, and of SOARING FOR EXCELLENCE.

At Te Hapara School we want our students to be happy, to care about others, and their environment, and we want them to strive for excellence in all they do. We are committed to improving outcomes for all students and to supporting students to find their own excellence.

It is important that whanau and teachers work together to ensure the best outcomes for our students. With this in mind, I encourage you to visit the school often, be a part of your child's learning journey and share your thoughts and ideas with staff.

Kia ora koutou katoa

Linda Savage
