Welcome to
Bulls School

Our Vision:
To create collaborative, connected and active lifelong learners in an innovative community school environment.

Principal's Welcome

Nau mai, haere mai ki tō tātou kura – Welcome to our School!

It is my absolute pleasure to welcome you and your whānau to our Bulls School community. We are so glad you’re here.

At our kura, we believe that relationships are at the heart of everything we do. When tamariki feel connected, valued, and supported, they thrive — not just in their learning, but in their growth as confident, caring, and capable members of our community. We take the time to know each learner, their whānau, and their story, because together we create a sense of belonging that allows everyone to succeed.

Our PRIDE values guide the way we learn, play, interact every day:
Positivity – Whanaungatanga: We build strong relationships and lift each other up.
Respect – Manaakitanga: We show kindness, empathy, and care for others.
Integrity – Pono: We are honest, responsible, and do what’s right, even when no one is watching.
Determination – Mana motuhake: We give our best, persevere through challenges, and take pride in our effort.
Excellence – Whakamana: We strive for high standards and celebrate achievement in all its forms.

You are now part of a school where culture, connection, and community are woven into every aspect of learning. We encourage you to be involved, share your ideas, and walk alongside us as partners in your child’s journey.

We look forward to getting to know you and your tamaiti, and to continuing to grow together as a learning whānau.
