Welcome to the Mata School web-site. Mata School is located inland from Tokomaru Bay on the East Coast of Te Tairawhiti.
In a predominantly farming - forestry location, our Sole-charge school has a fluctuating roll due to its location and employment opportunities.
Mata School is very well resourced, and provides learning opportunities that are comparable with many urban schools.
With a small, but strongly supportive community, we hope to give you an insight into what our school provides for those tamariki fortunate to be able to attend Mata.
The schools 'motto' incorporates the letters of the school and it influences our learning.
