Tōtara Park School A way to reach our community with news and information about Totara Park School. This encourages all pupils to reach their full potential. Joel Webby

Principal

Welcome to Totara Park School

At Totara Park School we have high expectations of pupil achievement. Our teachers employ the latest teaching strategies and techniques to give their pupils the skills they require for life long learning. This caring and safe learning environment provided by the Board of Trustees and the extra support and funding provided by the Home & School, contribute to the mode

rn, warm and inviting school climate. The Board of Trustees support the school's programmes by providing sound governance as well as strategic direction. We have a very modern and flexible learning environment that allows teachers to target the needs of each individual pupil. Hence 'Everyone Achieves'

Totara Park School provides a caring, positive and nurturing environment in which the pupil is placed at the centre of the school's very being. Our pupils and the strengths of our teaching teams are key ingredients in the success of our school. Totara Park School is very well equipped with excellent teaching resources and a very supportive community. We pride ourselves on our school's ability to provide the essentials for our pupils and the skills they will require for successful life-long learning. If you are a new family to the area, or a local family interested in sending your child to this school, welcome, and I look forward to developing a positive working relationship with you.

🏃‍♂️🏆 CROSS COUNTRY 🏆🏃‍♀️

What a fantastic day we had today for our school Cross Country! The weather absolutely played its part, but it was our incredible tamariki who truly shone out there on the field. ☀️🌟

🌟 To our tamariki: A huge congratulations to every single one of you for giving it your absolute best, showing awesome sportsmanship, and cheering each other on from start to finish. We are so proud of your efforts!

🙌 To our amazing helpers: A massive thank you to all the parents and whānau who gave up their time to help set up, marshal, and support the event. Special shout out to Phil and Shar from the Trentham Harriers for their support too. Events like this simply couldn't happen without our wonderful community behind us!
