Warm greetings to students, parents, caregivers and Whānau 

Welcome to Tauhara College. This is a very exciting, adventurous and positive place to be and when I walk around the school I feel very privileged to be the Principal of such a vibrant learning environment. I interact daily with students who have a strong identity as learners, a positive attitude and a determination to make the most of the opportunities that our school offers.

Students at Tauhara College are enthusiastically supported in their learning by an innovative, proactive and caring team of teachers who are committed to making learning personally relevant for them. They also have access to a fantastic range of music, artistic, performance, sporting and cultural opportunities.

Other features of the school include:

• An emphasis on fostering high achievement
• A strong focus on educational excellence and quality qualifications
• A stimulating and relevant curriculum
• An emphasis on making learning personally relevant for our students
• A strong focus on e-learning, blended-learning and Personal Learning Device (PLD) learning opportunities

Tauhara College provides a high quality education to all of our students at all levels. We ensure that they leave school with a range of memorable experiences behind them and clear pathways established for the future.

Tauhara College also specialises in meeting the needs of International students, providing high quality experiences that are centred around English language learning, shared cultural experiences and enjoying the many opportunities that an exciting place like Taupo offers.

We are proud to offer an excellent schooling choice, right here in our own community, where families can be part of their child’s education.
