Nau mai Haere mai. At St Anthony's School, we are proud to offer a welcoming, nurturing Catholic education for students from Year 1 to Year 8.
Located in the heart of Pahiatua, we are a close community that belongs to the St Brigid’s Parish.
Founded over 100 years ago by the Brigidian Sisters, we cherish our rich history and the values that have shaped us. Our Catholic Character is at the heart of everything we do, and we are committed to teaching our LIFE values: Love, Integrity, Fortitude, and Excellence. These values guide both our teaching and how we live our daily lives. We strive to provide a modern, well-resourced learning environment that prepares students for a bright future.
Our dedicated staff are passionate about delivering up-to-date teaching and learning experiences, while modeling the values that define our school. St Anthony’s is not just a school – it’s a vibrant community. Our whānau play an active role in their children’s learning, and we work together to provide the best possible educational experiences.
We would love for you to come and see what makes our school so special. We look forward to meeting you and sharing the journey of learning and growth. Come and be part of our story!
Nga mihi nui,
Acting Principal Jenni Harrison

Kia ora koutou,
We have continued to receive reports of head lice, so we would really appreciate all families taking a few minutes each day to check their children’s hair and treat if needed.
Head lice can be tricky to get rid of, and it is important to remember that two or three treatments, repeated at the recommended intervals, are often needed to fully clear them.
If you need further information or advice, please contact your health provider or visit the Ministry of Health website:
Support is available! Public Health Nurses can provide advice and support with head lice treatment for the whole family. This can include head lice treatment products, conditioner, combs and guidance on how to treat effectively. A Public Health Nurse can arrange to visit school or your home to assess and provide support.
If you would like to access this support, please pop into the school office and ask for a referral form.
Thank you for your help and cooperation. By working together, we can help keep our tamariki comfortable and head lice-free!

Kia ora koutou,
There have been a few mix-ups with clothing and gear following our Pet Day.
Could everyone please take a moment to check that names on uniforms are correct and that you haven't accidentally taken home someone else's belongings. We are particularly looking for PE tops and sun hats.
We are also on the lookout for a black, size 10 Kathmandu waterproof jacket.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to check. We really appreciate your help in getting everything back to its rightful owner!
Ngā mihi nui,
Due to the forecasted wet weather we will unfortunately have to cancel hockey today. The turf will be too slippery to play safely. We will play the week 5 draw next week
