NAU MAI, HAERE MAI  ...  WELCOME TO TAITA CENTRAL SCHOOL

 Whakatauki - Ki te kotahi kākaho, ka whati: ki te Kāpuia, e kore e whati.
When we stand alone we are vulnerable; but together we are unbreakable.

It is a privilege to be the Tumuaki/Principal of Taitā Central School. Our kura sits in the heart of Taitā and by building strong relationships,working in partnership with our local community and offering purposeful, real-world, authentic learning experiences through our rich classroom teaching and learning programmes, delivered by experienced staff, we are able to equip our ākonga/students with the knowledge and skills to be the best they can be. Taitā Central School provides an inclusive environment where our tamariki have a strong sense of belonging and where we focus on their academic, cultural, physical, social and emotional needs.

Our school has an open door policy, where we invite you to come and see our place in action anytime. I look forward to meeting you soon!
