PRINCIPAL'S WELCOME
Haere Mai/Welcome to Heriot School. We hope that our website offers you a little insight into our place.
We are very much a rural community school and have been since 1879. We are hugely proud of our children, of our community and of our school. This fact is reflected in our culture, in our environment and in the significant community support we receive.
Together we are all committed to providing the best possible opportunities for our children and to continually improve their outcomes.
I am proud and honoured to be the Tumuaki of Heriot School and I am driven by the extraordinary effort and achievements of all of our learners.
