Welcome

Haere mai ki a koutou katoa – a warm welcome to Arahoe School. Our kura/school first opened with four classrooms in 1958 to provide for the growing urban population between New Lynn and Green Bay. During the subsequent years we have grown considerably and now have a roll of around 550 students.

At the heart of our school are our people. Our school community is vibrant, diverse and dynamic. Examples of this can be found in our talented Board of Trustees, our supportive school community, our highly professional staff and that which makes us unique, our wonderful students.

We sadly farewelled our outgoing Principal, Richard Limbrick, at the end of 2022 after 27 years of service to the school. We wish him every success in his next venture. Our new Principal, Louis Heap, will be starting on the first day of Term 1, Tuesday 7 February 2023. We look forward to welcoming him with a pōwhiri on that day.
