Kimihia Primary School

Kimihia School is situated on the east side of Huntly in a semi-rural setting. We are a strong community based school that began in 1897.

Kimihia, translated as "Go and Seek", is the school motto and our mission statement is "To provide a caring, stable environment and academic excellence while preparing students for life long learning."

All students at our school are encouraged, guided and supported to "Go and Seek" as we prepare them as 21st Century learners.

The Virtues is a well embedded practice that underpins Kimihia School's Positive Behaviour for Learning and the Kimihia Kid Attributes of; Respectful and Proud, A Goal Setter, A Communicator, A Problem Solver, A Risk Taker and Healthy and Happy. It is our belief that by providing opportunities and challenges for students to develop skills that are able to be transferred into real life situations, they will be better prepared for an exciting future, full of choices. 

Dedicated staff and Board of Trustees provide a positive learning environment based on strong relationships with whanau and community to ensure success for all.
