About

Opononi Area School is a small rural school situated on the edge of the beautiful Hokianga Harbour.

Education in a rural setting has many advantages and we are excited to offer our students the opportunities rural education provides:

• Small class numbers which ensures student's receive personalised teaching and have opportunities to develop personal skills through tuakana/ teina activities.

• Student leadership opportunities at all levels of schooling.

• An experienced professional network that knows every student, and avenues for extension and support.

• Individual attention to develop personalised programmes and goals.

• Extra curricular opportunities that utilise our unique physical environment.
