Welcome back to school! 

It has been an absolute stellar start with sunny Summer days enabling our learners to get outside to collaborate amongst our beautiful grounds. 

It is a privilege to be the professional leader of such an amazing team who provides the best possible learning opportunities for our children.

At Hauroko Valley Primary, we are passionate about unlocking the potential of each of our learners and creating a culture where students, whanau and staff care, connect, ‘can-do’ and celebrate together!  




HVP had three teams taking up the 2022 Otago/Southland Regional AgriKids Finals! 

Well done to Finley, Maddi and Daniel; also to Ollie, Sam and Tomas.

We are proud of your achievements in the range of agricultural modules covering a wide range of farming challenges.




Congratulations to these guys = Ewan, Harry and Oliver who were “outstanding in their field”! 

There were several schools from throughout Southland and Otago, competing in teams of 3. 

“The Blazing Pitchforks” took away 2nd place!

This phenomenal achievement has secured their place in the NZ Agrikids Grand Final, later on this year in Whangarei.



All students enjoyed their Life Education “Human Biology” sessions with Teresa and Harold. 

Kowhai and Matai classes engaged in learning about Sexuality Education while Totara and Rata focused on Personal Identity and Healthy Wellbeing. 

As always this amazing mobile classroom makes a lasting impression on our tamariki.

Lots of collaborative learning within a uniquely kiwi environment.



We are disappointed to have had to make the decision to cancel The 2022 Blackmount Trail Ride. 

T H A N K  Y O U to each of our supporters - we are incredibly appreciative to our sponsors, the Blackmount landowners, amazing riders, fabulous volunteers and the HVP Home and School team who pull it all together. 

You make such a BIG difference to our LITTLE school! 

We look forward to 2023 and making it the best one yet!


Thanks for joining us on our learning journey. 

If you would like to see our learners in action, please check us out on Facebook or through our website - www.haurokovalley.school.nz         


Until next time. 

Nga mihi nui, 

Julia Waikato
