Welcome to Motupipi School, a semi-rural primary school only five minutes from Takaka.

The school is surrounded by mature trees and expansive grounds and students are encouraged to be outdoor creators;  to climb, swing and play similar games that we did when we were young.

Whanau involvement is high in all facets of schooling, with parents, family and community members providing excellent support for the school.  The staff and board of trustees at Motupipi School are committed to providing students with high-quality education that coincides with our school vision of;

Believe in yourself.  Be caring.  Take the challenge.  Succeed. 

Our progressive curriculum provides opportunities for excellence not only in academics, but also in sporting and recreational activities.  We take advantage of learning opportunities as they arise and utilise the outdoor environment as much as possible.
