Principal's Message

Welcome to our school!

We are a vibrant, thriving community in the heart of South Auckland.

At Papatoetoe West we believe that every child can experience success in their schooling and what this looks like will be different for every child. Our approach is to provide a broad curriculum with rich and meaningful learning experiences. We show commitment to our vision of E tu Kahikitea - Together we strive for growth through learning, by working with whānau and all key stakeholders to support our ākonga as best we can.

Our West Way school values of Respect for Self, Respect for Others and Respect for the Environment underpin how we operate as a school community.

You will find information about our kura through this website ( currently under development) and our Facebook page but the best way to experience what we are about is by visiting us and we welcome you to do so.

Ngā mihi mahana,

Sandy Tritt
