About us
Mairehau (my-<r>eh-ho) is a school with a strong community focus where every student has the chance to shine. We pride ourselves on our innovative and caring staff, and value individuality and difference. Our small size means that teachers get to know all students as individuals and are committed to going the extra mile for all learners to help them reach their full potential. Our students are our top priority.
Mairehau High School’s philosophy views learning and well-being as two fundamental components that must be in harmony for students to become engaged in learning and achieve their full potential.
We use the acronym CARE to represent the values we want students to strive towards every day.
The teachers in our school are committed, passionate, and dedicated. We are a small school with a caring, community feel.
Our teachers will get to know your child well and work with you as a parent to ensure positive and enriching learning experiences for your child. We pride ourselves on our innovative and caring staff, and we value individuality and difference.
All teachers will be focused on making a positive difference for your child. Our teachers are simply a fantastic group of people.
Our visual story was created to represent our key foundations as a school. Our job is to give students the paddle and let them steer the direction of their learning.
Paddling in the waka are five students to represent the five year groups.
The students have developed a set of competencies/attributes (Head, Heart, Hands) that will enable them to paddle their waka in any direction that they chose in life – they are the skills to live and learn, function and succeed; to reach their full potential.
