Kia Ora, Haere Mai, Welcome to Shotover Primary School.
We cater for children from new entrants to year 8. We opened our doors for the very first time in 2015 with 88 children on day one. Since then we have grown to a touch over 600 children. We are fortunate to have had all our future growth space fully built and we enjoy contemporary learning spaces that make the most of our location including a community hall with a music studio, technology and science room, and playgrounds.
Our vision for all our children is to Create a Climate of Possibility. Our goal is to cause learning to happen and to create an environment that does not limit the imagination of the children entrusted to our care. We want to see them leave us at the end of year 8 knowing that they can pursue the possibilities that they have conceived and explored at our school.
We consider it a huge privilege and responsibility to serve the families of Shotover Primary School. Causing learning for your children is something we are honoured to do. We trust you will enjoy your time as part of Shotover Primary School.
