Happy Summer!

Arahoe School would like to wish all our students, whānau and the wider community a restful, fun and safe summer break! The school is officially closed, and we encourage everyone to take this time to relax and recharge. We look forward to welcoming you back, refreshed and ready for a new year of learning and growth. To help you plan ahead, please find all the essential information regarding our school's opening dates and term schedule for 2026 in the document linked here. Enjoy the sunshine, and we will see you in the new year!

Our School Vision!

We are delighted to share our school vision which aligns with our values and new tohu. This is another piece in a process of reviewing our school identity which has been going on for the last 18 months. You can read more about it here.

Haere mai ki a koutou katoa – a warm welcome to Arahoe School.

We are a vibrant and dynamic multicultural school in New Lynn, West Auckland. We like to give our ākonga/students every opportunity to explore, grow and succeed in all areas – not just the core curriculum areas of literacy and maths. We are passionate about science, history, technology and the arts as well as physical pursuits, and our students are given a wonderful variety of contexts in which to find out how to be the best version of themselves. Diversity is welcome here and every student's uniqueness is valued, nurtured and celebrated.

I am lucky enough to work with a team of outstanding educators and support staff, backed by a talented and dedicated School Board.

I look forward to seeing your child, you, and your whānau around our school over your time here.

Ngā mihi nui / warm regards
