Our vision is to Climb Our Way to the Top!
Nestled on the edge of Fiordland National Park, our students draw inspiration from our mountainous surroundings to reach for their best, whether in the classroom, exploring the bush, or enjoying time with friends on the playground.
We are a school that loves to get out there and do it, and we regularly use the National Park and our lake. We are part of Kids Restore the Kepler programme, to help restore birdsong to an area just across the lake from Te Anau Township.
The school site is on Milford Road and occupies a tree-lined site of 2.2 hectares in the centre of Te Anau. We are a contributing (Year 0 – Year 6) school (U4) with a roll between 280 and 300 students. We have a decile ranking of 9.
At Te Anau School, children thrive in an atmosphere that also values community and nature. Here, they learn not just from books but from hands-on experiences that connect them to the world around them. With dedicated teachers and a focus on exploration and growth, every child is encouraged to reach their full potential.
