Local curriculum & Learning experiences

Rāwhiti School's local curriculum is responsive to the needs, identity, language, culture and aspirations of our students and their whānau. Learning programmes are based around annual concepts of substance, significance and relevance, that help students to make connections and see a real purpose for their learning. Matauranga Māori learning opportunities (wheako) are included as part of the schoolwide learning concept.
