The trucking and logistics firm Mainfreight Limited has sponsored the school since 1993. The school benefits from this relationship due to the support Mainfreight gives to it in the area of Information and Communication Technologies, and Alan Duff's Duffy Books in Homes programme. Mainfreight's philosophy of "Anything is Possible" is one that fits with the educational philosophy of the school. In 1997 the school renamed itself from Bairds Primary School to its current name.
