HPPS

Mainstream - just not as you know it.

Purpose-built learning spaces. Expert teaching teams. A thriving community where children master the fundamentals and discover their potential. Welcome to education that shapes lives, not just ticks boxes.

Education that matters.

At Hobsonville Point Primary School, we ignite curiosity, honour every child's unique strengths, and grow confident, capable learners ready to make their mark on the world.

Flexible Learning

Light-filled, flexible spaces designed with acoustics and wellbeing in mind, empowering every child to learn in ways that work for them.

Our People

Our passionate team knows every child, creating personalised learning experiences that nurture strengths and build confidence.

Community & Partnerships

Strong partnerships with whānau, iwi, and the wider community enrich learning and provide authentic real-world connections.

Future-Focused Learning

Students develop critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication skills that prepare them for a changing world.

Learning isn't one-size-fits-all. We combine world-class facilities with evidence-based teaching, strong relationships, and real-world connections—because when children feel known, valued, and inspired, deep understanding naturally follows.

What We Strive to Be

"To create a stimulating, inclusive learning environment that empowers learners to contribute confidently, knowledgeably, and responsibly in our changing world.”
