Welcome to Mission Heights Primary School
We are a primary school serving the Flat Bush community in Manukau Auckland catering for Year 1s to Year 6s. We strive to be a friendly and receptive school, alert to the needs of our young learners and helping them to reach their full potential. We believe forming positive relationships with our parents and our wider community will enable us to achieve this.
Parents are welcome to visit the school. However, school visits are by appointment only so do call reception to confirm your appointment.

MHP was a sea of pink in support of the Pink Shirt Day movement! Continue having conversations this weekend about being kind, including others and standing up for friends!
Yummy vegetable spring rolls are on the menu in GTT this week. We learnt how to fill the pastry sheet and seal the edges with flour paste. It was quite tricky but we love challenges at MHP.
Come and check out our junior students having a blast in their Skillz ACE lesson! They’re building their fine-motor skills and teamwork through fun and exciting games like threading needles, passing cups with sticks, and using pegs to hand over stars to their buddies. There’s lots of laughter, focus, and high-fives as they work together and cheer each other on. It’s all about learning through play!
In celebration of Support Staff Day, Water and Earth Studio students made a card for our wonderful support teachers.
A big shoutout to our amazing school councillors for leading the way and encouraging everyone to wear pink next Friday in support of Pink Shirt Day! ![]()
This important day is all about standing up to bullying, spreading kindness, and showing that our school is a place where everyone feels safe, valued, and included.![]()
Let’s turn the school pink and send a strong message:
Kindness counts. Words matter. We’ve got each other’s backs.![]()
Can’t wait to see a sea of pink next Friday! #PinkShirtDay #KindnessWins #StudentLeaders
Congratulations Mrs Lal - we are very proud of you @MHP for all the hard work and dedication you have given to our Garden to Table. ![]()
Renuka Lal is the Deputy Principal and Garden to Table Programme Champion at Mission Heights Primary
School in Tāmaki Makauaru. Renuka has shown great enthusiasm and energy for Garden to Table at
Mission Heights Primary School. In a short time, she has led the programme to be part of the school's
culture, woven into other learning areas and initiatives.
Her enthusiasm and passion has influenced many staff and whānau from those who are involved directly
in the programme being Kitchen and Garden Specialists or volunteers to other staff bringing in tools,
equipment and ingredients. Fundraising, whānau events and celebrations always have some Garden to
Table integration, from pakoras and preserves prepared in their Garden to Table sessions, to harvesting
kawakawa from their gardens to make skin balms, Renuka sees Garden to Table as an endless
opportunity for many facets of school life and learning.
Years 4-6 were surveyed in 2024 about their favourite learning areas and 300 out of 380 students ranked
Garden to Table at the top. Ngā mihi nui Renuka for being an enthusiastic Champion and advocate for
Garden to Table!
Vegetable Fried Rice has been a popular dish in GTT. It’s a great way to use the leftover rice and create a quick snack to enjoy after school.
