Wanaka Primary School

Wanaka is an area where wine growing and tourism abound as the growing industries. Nearby we have a lake, fabulous hills and scenic tracks which enable us to take advantage of many E.O.T.C activities such as aquatics, Nordic and alpine skiing and exploring the local area.

Wanaka School has close warm relationships with students, parents and the community. Our strengths are in the integrated, school wide programmes and quality teaching we provide. Teachers strive to provide well balanced learning programmes, where inquiry, critical thinking, co-operative learning strategies and digital literacies are an integral part of our approaches. We provide extra programmes for our at risk students and for our more able students over and above the work undertaken in the classroom. Literacy and numeracy have a high priority.
