OUR VISION

Our vision is to create a community of learning in the heart of the wider

Rangiora District where learning is engaging, relevant and

responsive to the needs of all students.

We will strive to produce life long learners who participate and contribute positively.

Our students will be…

taught to Collaborate, Communicate and Create. We will do this by building highly effective working

relationships between our teachers, our students, our parents and our communities. We will ensure that all students

have their learning needs met.

We will enable students, parents and whānau to develop educational pathways to success.

We aim to:

1) Build a new community of learning 2) Raise the achievement levels for all learners in the

community 3) Improve the outcomes for at-risk and priority learners

4) Develop teacher/educator capacity across the learning community

5) Improve educational pathways
