Education

Kaingaroa School is a coeducational full primary (years 1-8) school with a decile rating of 3 and a roll of 159.[2] The school realised in December 2007 that it was becoming too large for its facilities, but it is physically unable to expand. One suggested solution is the establishment of an enrolment zone for the school.[3]
