Principal's Message

The wonderful Sunset Primary School continues to go from strength to strength! The past few years has seen the school enjoy countless changes and improvements, and a huge increase in student engagement at school.

Sunset offers numerous extra-curricular activities, lunch in schools, free stationery, zero fees and small classes – a recipe for success for your tamariki.

Our staff have developed a fantastic localised curriculum and are currently engaged in very high quality professional development in cultural responsiveness, wellbeing and mathematics – meaning your children will receive the very best in educational practices at Sunset.

Our school has small classes thanks to generous funding from the board of trustees, so your children will get plenty of 1:1 support with their teachers and our fantastic Learning Support Workers.

At the beginning of 2021 we received all new furniture for our classrooms, and over the next two years all our classrooms are being renovated so we are working very hard on providing the very best environment for our students.

If you think you might like to send your children in to Sunset Primary School, come in and see me. I’m always happy to talk to whānau about whether or not Sunset Primary School is the right school for your child.

Nga Mihi,
Eden Chapman | Principal

5 and 6 Year Old Pickups
31 Mar 2025

Kia ora whānau,

We are changing arrangements for picking up 5 and 6 year old students from now on. 5 and 6 year old tamariki will stay in their classroom with their teacher until:
1) they are collected by a parent or older sibling OR
2) they are needed for the first van run.

If you normally wait in your car for your 5 or 6 year old to come out, you will need to come in and collect them please.

Ngā mihi, Eden
