We started at Tauranga Adventist school after a long search to find a school that upheld our family values.  Tauranga Adventist school was presented in a time where we had given up on the education system.  We could not be happier with Joanne and her team of fantastic teachers.  My children, who entered after a small stint of homeschooling, are beyond happy and settled in their new school.  Their learning is thriving, they have developed special friendships and they love their teachers.  They are accepted and cherished as individuals.  The special character of the school is our favourite part.  Our children have built a relationship with Jesus that is imbedded in Biblical scripture and truth.  I have since recommended the school to many friends and families who are seeking an academic as well as a Christian based education.  This school has changed our families life.  Choose Tauranga Adventist school if your looking for more then just for a fantastic education, but a community based on core Christian values and a nurturing environment for your child(ren).
