Manurewa West Primary School - Wisdom Through Understanding

Principal's Welcome

Welcome to Manurewa West Primary School, a proud successful and
well regarded school in the local and wider community.
At Manurewa West we recognise that choosing the right school for
your child is one of the most important decisions you will make. 
 
This website provides a place where you can access information about
our school and where we can communicate with you. We want to
provide an informative background, so that prospective and
current parents can have a communication portal and a place to
celebrate our school – a school of choice.
 
We aim to develop a school community of lifelong learners who
are independent and motivated to succeed in achieving their
goals. Learners are encouraged to develop their talents and
strengths across all areas of the curriculum through the use of
enquiry learning, thinking and questioning skill, technology
and unwavering commitment to building strong skills in literacy
and numeracy.  Our students will learn the skills and
competencies required to be successful in their pursuits.
 
As a team of learners, our staff are committed to the concept of
lifelong learning and we have a strong professional development
programme to support the notion "If you want quality learning, you must first have effective teachers". Professional development is the key to that becoming a reality.
 
Not only is Manurewa West a very successful and progressive school, we are a school committed to raising the achievement levels of every student we have enrolled. We have received and appreciated many acknowledgements concerning our effective teaching and learning applications, however the comment "Manurewa West Primary School is a very safe and happy school" is a well stated acknowledgement by our parent community. This obviously recognises the high education standards, firm expectations of learning behaviour and zero tolerance to bullying which our school has built its positive reputation on.
 
I look forward to meeting both you and your child in the near future.

 

Regards

David Wallis
