Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou katoa.
Nau mai, haere mai ki Te Kura o Maungatapu
Welcome to Maungatapu School. We are a proud school with a rich history that centres its learning programmes around positive relationships.
At our school we have two prominent sayings:
1. Treat the children like they are your own
2. Look after the school and it will look after you.
It is imperative that we get to know you and your child so that we can do everything we can to assist our children in reaching their utmost potential.
We also want our children and their whanau to feel like they belong. We do this by providing a learning environment that is positive, caring and safe for all children.
We are really fortunate to have an excellent teaching team who are passionate in ensuring our Maungatapu School children achieve success academically, socially, culturally and emotionally.
At Maungatapu School we cater for children in both Rūmaki (Māori language immersion) and Aūraki (Mainstream) education. This allows children the opportunity to engage in a wide range of learning opportunities.
Lastly, our board of trustees provides effective governance to allow for improved student outcomes.
I look forward to meeting with you and your child and welcome any new families to visit our wonderful school.
Maungatapu Primary School is a great place to learn for everyone.
