Welcome To Te Anau School

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 as part of our learning.

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 with a roll between 300 and 320 students.

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.
