Tēnā koutou, tenei te mihi atu ki a koutou katoa. Nau mai, haere mai, ki te kura nei. Greetings and a very warm welcome to Dargaville Primary School. My name is Curtis Gaylor and I am the principal of this fantastic school.
It is a tremendous privilege to lead such a wonderful school with fantastic tamariki, talented and hardworking staff and a very supportive community.
Children are at the heart of everything we do at Dargaville Primary School.
We provide high-quality teaching and learning programmes that are built on strong foundations in numeracy and literacy as well as offering a broad range of opportunities for our tamariki to experience and excel in sporting, cultural and artistic endeavours. We encourage our tamariki to take risks, to go out of their comfort zones and to embrace new experiences.
We regularly celebrate effort, success and achievement. We also make sure that our children’s wellbeing is a priority to ensure that all needs are met within a physically safe and emotionally secure environment. Dargaville Primary School is a place where everyone is important and respected for who they are.
We believe that education is a partnership between home and school and welcome and encourage parents and caregivers into our kura. I look forward to meeting you and showing you around our very special school.

Kia ora whānau,
As we move through the term, we’ve noticed an increase in illnesses among our tamariki. I wanted to reach out to remind everyone of the importance of keeping children at home if they are unwell.
Our school community includes some children with high health needs, and for them, even a minor illness can have serious consequences. We all share the responsibility of ensuring that our kura is a safe and healthy place for every child.
If your child is showing any signs of sickness – whether it’s a cough, fever, runny nose, or upset stomach – we kindly ask that you keep them at home until they are fully recovered. This small act of kōtahitanga (unity) helps protect not only those with high health needs but also our teachers, staff, and wider school community.
We understand that this can sometimes be inconvenient, but your cooperation makes a huge difference. Let’s work together to keep our kura a safe, supportive environment for everyone.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Parents, please support our local businesses
