Welcome to Mission Heights Primary School
We are a primary school serving the Flat Bush community in Manukau Auckland catering for Year 1s to Year 6s. We strive to be a friendly and receptive school, alert to the needs of our young learners and helping them to reach their full potential. We believe forming positive relationships with our parents and our wider community will enable us to achieve this.

More highlights of the day!
Students worked together in a fun and challenging balancing activity, relying on teamwork, communication, and trust to succeed. There were plenty of laughs as they encouraged one another, problem-solved, and adjusted their strategies to stay steady. It was a great opportunity to build cooperation skills while having lots of fun together.
Students took on the flying fox with excitement and courage, launching off the platform with big smiles and even bigger cheers. As they soared through the air, laughter echoed across the camp, with many conquering their nerves and going back for another turn. It was a highlight of the day, full of thrill, confidence-building, and unforgettable fun.
