About Te Kura o Tuahiwi
plaintextWelcome to Te Kura o Tuahiwi, nestled in the heart of Kaiapoi within Canterbury.
As a state-run full primary school embracing coeducation for approximately 180 students, we are proud members of our vibrant community. Our student body is richly diverse, with 62% Māori and 27% European/Pākehā representation—reflective of the strong cultural ties that define us.
Dot Singh, a dedicated educator at our school's helm for over three years now, has been instrumental in fostering an environment where every child is valued and encouraged to thrive academically. Under her leadership, the enrolment process remains accessible yet thorough, ensuring that each student who joins us aligns with our core values of respect, inclusivity, and excellence.
Our school's ethos revolves around creating a nurturing space where children can grow together. We believe in the power of education to transform lives while honoring our unique heritage as part of New Zealand’s fabric. Te Kura o Tuahiwi is more than just an institution; it's a community committed to shaping future leaders.
