Te Kura o Wilford welcomes new enrolments for our English and Māori medium programmes.

Te Kura o Wilford is a dual medium school, which means we offer both English and Māori medium programmes for ākonga in years 0-8. Delivered by our four teaching syndicates, each programme has its own curriculum and entry criteria to support student learning.
