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!

Kia ora e te whānau,
Our teachers would like to invite you to join us in the Whareroa/school Hall on Wednesday 10th June from 5pm - 7pm for an important Hui about Reporting to Parents.
You are welcome to bring your children and they will be looked after by some of our staff in Pohutukawa Block.
We will be opening the Hui with Karakia and our HuttFest Roopu performing items for the 2026 HuttFest later this term.
We will then share kai and whakawhanaungatanga before discussing 'What is important for you to know about your tamaiti/child and their learning?'
We will share the changes the government is making to Reporting to Parents expectations for 2026 and beyond and seek to answer your questions.
We will finish with our Spot Prize draw and Karakia at 7pm.
Ngā Mihi
Whaea Shell and Taitā Central School Staff
Parents, please support our local businesses
