Te Kura Takawaenga o Whangarei

E nga mana.

Tena koutou katoa. Tihei Mauri Ora. Ko Hayley Read toku ingoa. My warm greetings to children, parents, caregivers, whanau and especially to those considering enrolment at Whangarei Intermediate School. Read on to see how WIS meets the needs of young adolescents, their learning and growing through the exciting intermediate years. Following are statements of our intentions:
Well Balanced   Inquiring   Successful

​School Mission Statement
To create a positive, caring, learning community that enables students and teachers to realise individual potential.

School Tirohanga: Values and Key Competencies

Maa te Whanaungatanga ~ Through developing and maintaining strong relationships

Ka Whai Maatauranga te Akonga ~ knowledge and understanding can be acquired

Ka tuu Rangatira ~ which will allow the learner to stand with confidence
​Our expectation is that everyone in our school - students, staff and whanau are committed to learning all the time and from each other.
At Whangarei Intermediate School we want to break through any limitations that may hinder our students from achieving in their learning and developing as people.
​We promote a problem-solving culture in our school that works and promotes a ‘can-do’ attitude. We tell our students that having high expectations means being certain that all of us can learn and improve - no exceptions!
Of course, this website can only give a taste of our school, so I invite you to come and visit Whangarei Intermediate School. We would be happy to show you around our kura so that you can see it in action and feel the pulse of a school with a strong sense of its purpose and to see our students in action.
