The Waipahihi Vision, Mission and Strategic Goals
Our catchphrase "Immersed in Learning" strongly links to the imagery around the meaning of our school name, the 'place of scorching waters', and the learning at Waipāhīhī. “Immersed in Learning” is a broad statement to represent involving oneself deeply in a particular activity. In this case, the activity is learning and it’s deep learning. Surface retention of rote facts and figures learned in formal transitional learning environments is not enough anymore. To be successful in this century we need to know how to take some knowledge, connect it to new ideas, and to take it deeper.
OUR MISSION:
Encouraging collaborative, energised learners with a unique sense of self and belonging.
