Welcome To Tapanui School


Tapanui School is a learning community where 'Together we learn and grow'. Our main focus for teaching and learning programmes are the needs of the children and their learning.

We are a well resourced contributing school catering for students from Year 1 – Year 6. We have started this year with 95 students and the roll generally builds up during the year to 110 students working in five classrooms with dedicated teaching and support staff.   Tapanui School has a positive, caring culture with students and staff working co-operatively and respectfully and people comment on this when they visit our school and classrooms.

Our Decile 7 school is well positioned in the township of Tapanui, West Otago with the Play Centre, Kidzway Early Learning Centre and Blue Mountain College situated alongside. We are nestled at the base of the Blue Mountains and have an idyllic view of the surrounding countryside from our school grounds.

For information about the recently advertised DP position, please contact the school office on 03 2048614 or by email office@tapanui.school.nz Remember applications close 22 September 2010.

One of the issues in education currently is the introduction of National Standards.  The information that has been sent home to our parents can be viewed by clicking on this link: National Standards Concerns
