Consistent with the New Zealand Curriculum Achievement levels, classes are usually composite in two-year groupings. We aim to ensure that all children are given the best possible opportunity to learn in a happy and safe environment. The intellectual, social, emotional and physical development of each child is given careful consideration when students are placed in class groups. All classes are non-streamed with class sizes kept to the lowest possible number.
