Maraetai Beach is a coastal community situated on the south east coast of Auckland. The Pohutukawa Coast encompasses beautiful beaches and coastal walkways and cycle paths, Omana Regional Park, showcasing a working farm and an array of coastal flora and fauna. Close by are the International Formosa Golf Course and the Pine Harbour Marina complex that offers daily ferry services to Auckland City and Waiheke Island, Beachlands shops, cafes and restaurants, and the Whitford Forest. A 15 minute drive takes you to Botany Shopping Centre and Howick, with a selection of shopping, movies, swimming pools, etc.
It is important to us at Maraetai Beach School to recognise and learn about different cultures and countries. Our interactions with students that visit us are supported by our own adventures. In 2019, a group of our Intermediate students were lucky enough to be able to visit China. Here is a short video of the wonderful experience they had.
