WHERE WE LEARN
Academics
At Darfield Primary School we provide a quality education where all learners develop the skills, knowledge and confidence to stand tall and reach their potential.
The New Zealand Curriculum states that values are deeply held beliefs about what is important or desirable. They are expressed through the ways in which people think and act and as such are an integral part of the Darfield School Curriculum. Values are specifically modelled then explored as part of school life. It is who we are and who we aspire to be at Darfield Primary School.
