Horizon School

Horizon School is a vibrant and inclusive state integrated primary and secondary school for families in the Rodney District who value our special Christian character. Owned by the KingsWay Trust in Orewa and supported by the NZ Christian Proprietors Trust, our school mission of Loving Life, Living Faith and Looking Forward, and our values, are inte... rwoven with the concepts and information investigated and skills developed in a normal school day. We focus on inspiring learners to develop both a Love for Life and a Loving Life throughout our learning programmes. We also seek to encourage in the children a Living Faith - that this world is more than matter and that it is held together by a loving God who invites us to join in bringing good to the world. Through our learning programmes we are actively Looking Forward, in order to best prepare our learners for their futures rather than our pasts, and to equip them to contribute in their world both now and in years to come. Incorporating the New Zealand Curriculum, we focus on the total growth of the developing child, addressing social, physical, emotional and cultural needs in addition to academic welfare. We use an inquiry-based approach to teaching and learning and use a wide range of teaching strategies and assessments to cater for the diverse needs of our learners.Read More
