Welcome to Upper Moutere School

For 169 years Upper Moutere Schools has been a central part of our vibrant village community, here in Upper Moutere.

We believe our school is the literal playground for life, where we learn to collaborate, communicate and celebrate alongside diverse people and learners, within our encouraging and supportive community.

Our students are the leaders of their learning supported by their teachers who work alongside them to meet their learning needs, using an increasingly diverse range of learning tools to engage and challenge them.

We are proud of our students and we are proud of their achievements across the whole curriculum. Our values guide our learning focus. We show RESPECT, we are CURIOUS, and we have INTEGRITY in all of our learning experiences.

We are proud of our school and we love to share it with others. You are always welcome at Upper Moutere School.

He aroha whakatō, he aroha puta mai. If Kindness is sown, then kindness you shall receive.
