About Kawhia School
Welcome to Kawhia School, where education meets cultural heritage in this vibrant full primary institution nestled within Waikato'th heartland.
As a state school proudly serving the local community since its establishment, we are committed to providing an enriching learning environment for our approximately 50 students. Our diverse student body reflects Kawhia's rich cultural tapestry with about 81% Māori heritage being celebrated and nurtured within every aspect of school life.
Embraced by the scenic suburb of Kawhia, our co-educational approach ensures that all children receive equal opportunities to learn from one another. Under Principal Leanne Lim-Apiti's leadership, we strive for excellence while maintaining a strong sense of community and respect for each other’s backgrounds.
Our school is located at 318 Rosamond Terrace in Kawhia, which not only provides us with beautiful surroundings but also the peaceful setting that enhances our educational experience. We encourage prospective families to visit and become part of a community where every child's voice matters.
