For those of you new to the school, we are a family friendly, child centred rural primary school for pupils in years 1 to 8 (ages 5 to about 13).
Children attend our school from a wide area in and around the immediate area to the west of Timaru. The school is served by several bus runs two of which serve the edge of Timaru City.
We have between 125 and 148 pupils - the roll varies as new entrants join us during the year.
Although the school has an enrolment scheme in place, we are currently accepting a limited amount of children from outside our zone. If you are interested in finding out more information about our scheme please feel free to email us.
Our school is well equipped and supported by an active Board of Trustees and Home and School Committee.
We welcome enquiries from the parents of prospective pupils.
