Wainuiomata Primary School is a U5 contributing school, catering for students from Years 1 to 6. We are a Positive Behaviour for Learning (PB4L) school where students are provided with an emotionally supportive environment. We aim to create a climate of support and respect for individual and cultural differences.
Wainuiomata Primary School was founded in 1857 and is situated at the south end of the Wainuiomata Valley. We are one of the oldest schools in Wellington and the first to be built in Wainuiomata.
We have a diverse mix of students at our school with many ethnicities represented. Our school community is both suburban and rural. The school community values the importance of good communication between the various groups that make up our school – children, whānau parents/caregivers, Board of Trustees, leadership, teachers and support staff. We recognise that good communication enhances teaching and learning and helps build positive, collaborative relationships between home and school.
Kia ora e te whānau, we are so excited Te Ra Pakeke is nearly here! It is our special afternoon celebration, on the last day of term, Friday 25 September at 1.30 pm, where we invite our special friends and whānau to come in for a delicious afternoon tea and some quality time with your children. By now your child should have brought home at least one invitation, for a special adult in their life. It might be a mum, dad, sibling, grandparent, uncle or aunt, friend or neighbour, it can be anyone special to them! All are welcome. Please let your child's teacher know if you haven't received an invitation. We'd love to see as many people as possible - last time in 2024 was an amazing turnout and it was such a special afternoon. We ask that you make every effort to attend, as we did have a couple of disappointed wee ones last time and we'd love to avoid that if we can. As it is the last day of term, you are more than welcome to take your child home with you when you've done enough celebrating.
Tomorrows school assembly has been postponed to next Friday @ 2.20pm
