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,
Principal Marg Hyslop

Just a friendly reminder about our Matariki Celebration:
If you have donations of food (as per the form handed in last term) please drop these into the school hall before 9am, tomorrow, Thursday 23 July. If you are able to deliver the meat donations this afternoon at 3pm or before that would be great (but no pressure if you can't)!
Thank you to those of you who have indicated you are able to help us prepare the kai tomorrow. We have sent an email to you regarding the details of the preparation.
If any other whānau would like to help with the preparation tomorrow please contact us so we can send you a class timetable - you are more than welcome to just help with your child's class.
We are looking forward to celebrating this important occasion together as a school community this Friday 24 July (5-7pm in the hall).
