Duntroon School was established in 1879. The school is recognised as being of historical significance in our community. It is situated in a small township bounded by State Highway 83, Livingstone Street and the Maerewhenua River. The majority of children are transported to school by three bus runs from a wide catchment area. The catchment of the school is Campbell Park to the West, Blackpoint to the East and Danseys’ Pass to the South.
We provide stimulating and engaging learning opportunities for students from Year 0 to 8, supported by a dedicated and collaborative team of educators. Our thriving rural school is well supported by the Board of Trustees and the local community.
Our work is underpinned by the four core values of Honesty, Respect, Perseverance, Co-operation and Inclusion which sit within our vision: ‘The BEST we can be’ Ko te pai e taea e tatou!
B - Believe in myself, E - Empowered to learn, S - Socially Responsible, T - Thinkers and Learners for life.
We invite you to come and see for yourself what makes our kura so special. We warmly welcome whānau and community members to visit us, meet our passionate staff, and experience the unique spirit of our rural school in the Waitaki Valley.

We are looking forward to a fantastic day tomorrow.
A reminder to have sporty gear on and house colours if you can.
Start with a layer of sunblock on and we have more at school for further layers.
We have had great parental support along with returning high school students to help us on the junior and senior events - thanks everyone.
Look forward to seeing lots of families along to watch the events.
