We are a small rural country school in the Tararua District which caters for children from Years 0 to 8.
The school has a long tradition, having been established in 1887. It has progressed from its early beginnings and proudly offers excellent learning opportunities within a family based atmosphere. Our school is a very special place and thrives in a caring and supportive community.
Our motto is ‘Little Acorns to Mighty Oaks’. Our motto is based around the 80 year old oak trees which line the original entrance to our wonderful school. We encourage all of our children to uphold our MIGHTY values of being motivated, inclusive, giving respect, honesty, teamwork and you persevere.
Thank you for taking the time to see what a great school we have in our peaceful and idyllic haven. Please drop in anytime to see us in action.

Bus Changes - Please remember to email school to tell us if your child will be off the bus on a regular day each week. We update our records each term so you need to tell us if your child will still be off the bus e.g. for dancing or rugby training. Thank you to those parents who have already let us know.
As this Friday is the last day of term it will bring a "Bring Your Treasure Friday". Children can bring in an item to show the class. Treasures are kept safe when it isn't sharing time and your child should be able to tell us a little bit about the item.
Cultural Festival - we had our final practise today and are ready to go! Your children need to wear their Alfredton School sports uniform (t shirt, shorts and tracksuit). The children have been fitted with their Cultural Festival outfit today - staff are bringing them to the event tomorrow and we will get changed prior to our performance (which takes place after lunch). We are looking forward to sharing this special event with you. Kind regards, Alfredton School Teaching Team
