Swimming Pool

At Churton School, we are proud to offer a fully equipped swimming pool, complete with changing amenities. Our students have the wonderful opportunity to enhance their water confidence and prioritize water safety during the summer months, with the pool accessible throughout Terms 4 and 1.

Kapa Haka

Churton Kapa Haka aims to provide cultural enrichment through an ongoing and dynamic process that seeks to celebrate, protect and promote the unique Māori identity in our local and wider community. 

Our Kapa Haka is led by the incredible volunteer Tere Matthews from Te Oranganui. Practices are held once a week on Thursday 12:00 PM and is mainly for the senior students at the present time. Our Kapa Haka group performs to support special occasions such as prizegiving or Community events.
