The modern centre is at the entrance of the town and very close to all the local amenities. Children enjoy the indoor / outdoor flow and have plenty of space to enjoy their learning.
Te Kauwhata College is a rural, multicultural co-educational Year 7 to 13 school with a roll of just under 500 students.
Our College has a reputation for delivering a quality education to its students. Our aim is to provide students with skills and knowledge which will be a foundation for lifelong learning in a caring and supportive school.
Whether you are a current student or parent, or you’re planning to join our school community soon, you’ll find plenty of information on this website about what’s going on at our school.
We are a contributing school in the village of Te Kauwhata and pride ourselves on our place within the community and the sense of 'whanau' and 'belonging' that we strongly believe in and demonstrate.
During 2011 our school charter was revised and as a result of this process our new vision and values were developed and continue to be 'grown' by staff, students and our valued community.
During 2013 we opened our brand new garden area the 'Kids Patch' as well as launching our very own radio station - 'Listen Up' 107.2fm. In 2014 we were awarded our EnviroSchool's Silver award.
At the end of 2015 we were very proud to have constructed our Waharoa. The Waharoa was designed and carved by local Whanau and community and represents and embraces all that our school stands for.
TKP is a progressive school, embracing e-Learning with a range of modern devices as integral tools for supporting and enhancing quality teaching and learning in this 21st Century.
As a staff we are a 'team' of learners who, like our students, learn from each other and welcome all opportunities to continue to grow our roles and competencies in these 'exponential' times.
Te Kauwhata Primary School is a great place to be!
Thank you, we welcome visits to our school.
