Location:

Waiau Pa School is attractively situated in a semi-rural location, 21 kilometres from Pukekohe and Papakura.  The rural setting contributes to the culture of the school which remains focused on positive social interaction. 

History:

Waiau Pa School officially opened in October, 1890 in an unlined shed built by the first settlers. By 1900 the roll numbers had increased and the tiny shed became inadequate. A larger building was built on the Waiau Pa at Kingseat Road, which had then become more central. Once again in 1915 the roll growth exceeded the size of the building and the school was moved to its current position on Waiau Pa Road. Since this time the school has continued to rise to its present level of approximately 330 students.

Features:

• The environment continues to be semi-rural and the grounds are spacious.
• The school ethos incorporates a rural school approach where senior students care for younger ones.
• The school operates 14 classes from New Entrants to Year 8
