About Our School

San Antonio School is a caring, Catholic community committed to excellence in all spheres of the education of our children.

San Antonio School exists to educate our children academically, socially and spiritually: To challenge our children to achieve and to prepare them to play a positive role in our society and in life.

Through its special character, San Antonio promotes a values based environment that encompasses all aspects of children's learning and developmental needs.

The small size of the school fosters close and co-operative relationships between children of all ages. The school has a very involved parent and caregiver community with regular social activities such as the now famous annual San Antonio Ball, barbecues and morning teas during the school week. The school has an active and social PTA which also supports the schools by fundraising activities throughout the year. There is a close relationship with the adjacent Church and Parish of San Antonio.

If you would like your child to have a Roman Catholic education at San Antonio School, we welcome your enquiry  as there is now more discretion regarding admission.

The school has a decile rating of 10.

ERO Review

The ERO review in March 2007 noted that “The special character of the school is evident in classroom, corridor and library displays, which reflect seasonal and celebratory cycles, and the warm, respectful and responsible manner in which the students interact with each other and their teachers.  Everyone at the school is known by name.  Many organised activities encourage a sense of belonging.  For example, all students participated in the recent musical production and several school and class visits are made to places of local and educational interest such as Te Papa and the Wellington City and Eastbourne libraries.  There is also close contact with neighbouring schools for sporting activities and staff professional development. ”
