About Fairton School
Welcome to Fairton School, nestled in the heart of Ashburton within Canterbury's picturesque landscape.
Fairton School is a co-educational state institution committed to providing an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all students. With approximately 30 enthusiastic learners, our class sizes are small enough to foster close relationships between teachers and pupils while ensuring personalized attention.
At Fairton School, we believe that education goes beyond academic achievement; it is about instilling values such as respect, integrity, teamwork, compassion, resilience, innovation, empathy, leadership, curiosity and a love of learning. Our diverse student body comes from various backgrounds yet shares these core beliefs.
"Education should not just be about passing exams; it's also about preparing our students for the world beyond." - Principal Jude Irwin
