About Our School

 

Pukete School is situated off Te Rapa Straight and is located

just a few minutes drive from both the Hamilton City Centre, The

Base and Westfield Shopping Centre.  Pukete School opened in

1973. We currently have a roll of around 440 and we are a

uniform school. We do not have an enrolment scheme in place

and the majority of Pukete students come from Pukete,

Flagstaff, St. Andrews and Nawton with some children coming

from further outlying areas.

        

                                                                   

You will be greeted warmlyby our front office staff.

We have  an attractive environment which supports learning.

 Office Hours

The school Secretary is in

attendance at the office from

ANZAC DAY- Wednesday 25th April 2012

 

 

Three student councillors, along with Ms Renshaw attended the ANZAC Memorial Service at the Cenotaph, Memorial Drive on Wednesday. Majorie Chee and Luke Peters presented the wrath of behalf of Pukete School and Joey Addison attended the ceremony as photographer. The councillors observed the minute silence to remember the fallen soliders which ended with the firing of a canon on the sunny morning which marked the poignant service. The ceremony was also attended by other Pukete parents and students who were in various scouting groups from the community.

 

A Safe Place to Learn

When we have visitors at Pukete School, they comment on the

 friendly atmosphere and welcoming nature of the school. They

 look at the positive interaction that students have with their

 teachers and each other.

 

 At Pukete School we believe that building relationships and

 positive interaction are essential aspects of a quality learning

 climate.  By valuing and supporting our students we create a

 positive relationship which fosters learning. The personal

 development of the individual is a priority. Pukete is an

 anti-bullying school.

 

 

Every member of our school community has a right to

feel safe and supported at school.

At our school, we believe that everyone has the right to be treated respectfully. 

  

I invite you to visit Pukete and discuss with me or my staff how Pukete can

support your child.
