About Fox Glacier Kura

Our school embraces a warm and inclusive atmosphere, where children have the opportunity to learn and grow together, side by side with their friends and siblings, within the same classroom.

 

Our commitment to nurturing a close-knit community is reflected in our robust infrastructure, which includes two well-appointed classrooms that provide conducive learning spaces for our pupils. Additionally, we have a library/media room, an assembly room that serves as a hub for collective gatherings, a tennis court, a heated swimming pool, and an expansive sports field. Our playground caters to different age groups, while our art room encourages creativity and collaborative learning. There is a purpose-built and well equipped Playgroup on site for pre-schoolers.

​

Central to our educational approach is our localised curriculum, which fosters meaningful connections with the wider community. Through this curriculum, students gain valuable insights into the importance of caring for our unique and cherished Westland environment. 

​

While we wear mufti at school day-to-day, there are select occasions when we proudly don our school uniforms. These occasions include sports days and out-of-school visits, where our uniforms serve as a symbol of unity and belonging. Our school uniforms are provided free of charge to students. Uniforms are returned when pupils leave the school, ensuring the sustainability of our stock.

​

At our school, we embrace the journey of education as a collaborative endeavour - one that nurtures not only academic growth but also the social and emotional development of our students. Through our close community, comprehensive facilities, and well-structured learning programmes, we are dedicated to cultivating compassionate individuals, who cherish both themselves and others, respect the environment, and possess the determination to overcome life's challenges.
