NAU MAI, HAERE MAI, WELCOME TO ST ANNE'S CATHOLIC SCHOOL
A Message from the Principal...
We welcome you and your family to St Anne’s Catholic School and thank you for considering our School as ‘the choice ’for your child’s education.
Selecting the right school for your child is one of the most challenging and important decisions you will make for your child. School must be a rewarding, stimulating and positive place for your child to be. We want our School to be a great place to learn and a fun place to be.
Academic, physical, social and spiritual development form the foundation for your child’s education. We believe in a quality, balanced education that meets each of these needs, developing life-long learners, accentuating the abilities and special talents of your child in a framework of Catholic belief and practice.

Excellence in Learning
Our School has a strong emphasis in not only creating excellence in the learning programmes but also in the positive relationships and classroom environments we have.
Our priority is towards creating very sound reading, writing and mathematics programmes that are focused on ensuring high expectations are encouraged and modelled.
We work as a team across the School, moderating and enhancing good practice, and professionally evaluating our practice to ensure we deliver programmes that can assist teachers to assess with confidence and accuracy.
