Nau mai, haere mai ki te kura o Makuri (Welcome to Makuri School)

Makuri School is situated between the Makuri Awa (river) and Nga maunga o Puketoi (Puketoi Range). This is a rural area between Pahiatua township and the Pongaroa community to the east. Here at Makuri the classroom meets native NZ bush and rural surroundings. The school is a full primary (years 0-8), and has 2  classrooms. A junior class and middle/senior class operate 3 days a week and one whole class for 2 days a week. The very supportive community makes this happen with annual fundraising to support the school with the staffing required. The school uses structured literacy to provide great reading foundations for our junior Akonga (learners). We have a motivated and enthusiastic staff who provide wonderful support for our Akonga. The school has worked a lot on its local curriculum recently including educational trips into our local Bush, and connecting with local environmental support services. We have active, industrious children and endeavour to provide a well balanced, varied and fun learning environment.

Join us on our journey and read more about our beautiful school.
