Welcome to

Kaimai School

Tēnā koutou katoa! Nau mai haere mai!  

Welcome to Kaimai School.On behalf of our amazing teachers and Board of Trustees, we are delighted to welcome you and your whānau to Kaimai School. Kaimai School is a long established, rural school which opened in 1913. We are a U2 sized school with a roll of just under 100 students. Our Kaimai Kids start with us as New Entrants through to Year 8.

Kaimai School is not zoned and our Kaimai Kids either live in the Kaimai area or travel from Tauranga.

We are situated on the Kaimai Range, State Highway 29, ten minutes drive from The Crossing Tauriko and twenty minutes from Tauranga CBD. The majority of our students travel by buses that serve the upper and lower Kaimai area.

Our Kaimai Kids enjoy large grounds with a skatepark, swimming pool, court area, extensive native bush, spacious classrooms and numerous play areas suitable for different age groups. We also offer a daily breakfast club and specialist teachers who deliver intervention programmes!

We are very proud of our school and the opportunities it provides for our students and believe we offer a well rounded educational experience! We would love the opportunity to show you around our school and share our special place with you!

Ag Day display- mini Scene
12 Oct 2026

Kia ora koutou

Welcome to term 4.  This week is extremly busy with getting our indoor displays finished for AG day on Saturday.  If you haven't done so, so far, Granny Jane jars are due in by Friday please. Also on Friday, Kereru will be decorating saucers.  For this we will need flowers of many varities of colours.  Can you send some along to school on Friday morning so we can make them and they can get judged on Friday afternoon.

Mini Scenes:  This year we are creating a mini scene for one of our indoor displays.  You child has drawn what their scene will look like.  They will create their scene in boxes, shoe boxes and even suit cases.  Today we painted the scenes so now they are ready to have their characters and other items added to the scene.  Talk with your child about what they have planned and what they need to complete the rest of their creations.  We looked on Pinterest today to get lots of ideas.

I hope to message you more often this term and keep you updated on what we are upto.

Topic for next week is about Mallard Ducks.  Maybe you could take your child to McLarens Falls Park and spot some with their ducklings?
