Nau mai, haere mai ki te kura o Woodleigh. On behalf of the Woodleigh school community, our kaiako and akonga, I’d like to welcome you to our beautiful school and the Woodleigh Whanau.
Woodleigh School is renowned for its beautiful surroundings – nestled in the beautiful bush with an amazing view of our Maunga, the staff provide supportive, fun, student-centered, learning environments. We utilise our beautiful surroundings to provide a localised curriculum full of rich learning experiences. Our learning environments are focused on quality outcomes for each individual and we value the development of the whole child.
Another special aspect of Woodleigh School are our akonga (learners) themselves. We want our children to leave our school being great citizens, well-grounded, prepared and excited about the future. Woodleigh kids are well known for their academic, cultural and sporting achievements.
We also enjoy and recognise the tremendous parental involvement within the school. The Board and our Home and School (Fundraising group) are active in ensuring the best opportunities for our children.
Woodleigh School is committed to providing educational opportunities within an environment that fosters Manaaki (kindness), takohanga (responsibility), Maia (resilience), Auaha (curiosity) and whanau (family).
I look forward to welcoming new families and continuing the relationships with those who are already a part of our Woodleigh whanau.
