About Our Kura

Maruia School is located in the heart of the Maruia Valley and is made up of nineteen students, seven staff, six board of trustees members, a fantastic PTA and an exceptionally supportive community.

Our vision is to realise each child’s unique potential so that they may find success. This is shown by the way we work together as a school and community to support our students to thrive while in our care.

We learn about our school values of manaakitanga, kaitiakitanga, arohatanga and whanaungatanga and practise these every day. These values are the backbone of the culture of our school.

Kia ora whānau,

I’m just touching base as I need to confirm final numbers for our camp activities so I can lock in bookings and finalise the overall cost for everyone.

If you haven’t already, could you please complete the camp form as soon as possible? This will really help us keep everything on track.

Thank you so much for your ongoing support - we are gearing up for an awesome Camp Christchurch!

Ngā mihi nui,
Alex
