Welcome to Arahoe School
Arahoe 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 our school has grown considerably and now has a student population of just over 800.
At the heart of our school are our people. Our school community is a vibrant, dynamic and supportive one. Examples of this can be found in our talented Board of Trustees, Arahoe School Community Group (ACG), our highly professional staff and that which makes us unique, our wonderful students.
I hope you enjoy browsing our website and ultimately, being part of the Arahoe School community.

Theme 2019: A Voyage of Discovery
Our curriculum theme for 2019 recognises the 250th anniversary of the first meetings between Maori and non-Maori and the feats of Polynesian navigators and explorers who reached and settled in Aotearoa New Zealand many years earlier. This theme is based on the national commemoration Tuia - Encounters 250. For more information about our students' voyages of discovery and their learning about our histories and shared future, please click here.
