Kia ora and welcome to Southbrook School
Our website will hopefully act as a 'first base' for you regarding our school around up-to-date information about the physical and the pedagogical happenings here in our evolving (and really cool) environment.
We are a state-owned, full primary school with a roll that fluctuates from around 270 students in February through to approximately 290 students in December each year. Our students are aged between 5 – 13 years. We currently have 11 whānau classes, from New Entrants to Year 8, that work in collaborative teaching and Learning Spaces that aim to make the most of everyone’s skills and strengths.
Our school is located at the southern end of Rangiora, a rapidly growing town in the centre of the bustling Waimakariri District. We love seeing all members of our team grow and evolve as they spend time here and celebrate the great people who add to their 3-Kete each day. Enjoy your visit!
