Mt Eden Normal Primary School

Mt Eden Normal Primary School is a high-performing Decile 10 School in Auckland, New Zealand, and has served the Mt Eden community, delivering a true ‘kiwi’ education and school experience for over 140 years.

Our school is closely identified with the Mount Eden volcanic cone, also known as Maungawhau. The name derives from the whau (cork) tree that was native to the mountain.

We are proud of our identity and heritage as an exemplary school in the primary education sector and pride ourselves in offering a learner-centred education, supported by outstanding staff and high-quality resources and facilities. The school is organised into six year-level teaching teams, each with a designated Team Leader. 

Our school is a Normal School because of our close links to the University of Auckland Faculty of Education, and is used as a practice and demonstration school for teacher training.

We value our partnership with the University and status as a school with a long history of modelling, training and investing in new teachers.

Mt Eden Normal Primary School has a long and proud heritage of serving the Mt Eden community and delivering exemplary outcomes for all of our learners.

We are privileged to lead a dedicated staff and community who put learners at the heart of all we do. The children of MENPS are our greatest asset, and our vision is to enable them to succeed as students who are ‘wide-eyed and enthusiastic about learning’. 

We are committed to working in partnership with parents and caregivers to continue to strive for the highest standards and offer rich, diverse learning opportunities that engage and inspire every child to realise their potential.

Mt Eden Normal Primary School values the contribution students from many different nations bring to our school community.  We welcome International Students.
