Thank you for considering enrolling your child at Mount Maunganui Intermediate.
We are a large, welcoming intermediate school which prides itself on excellent educational opportunities, both in and out of the classroom, for all of our students.
Intermediate schools are special places which celebrate the unique opportunities and challenges of being an emerging adolescent. Mount Maunganui Intermediate is a safe, positive, inclusive school.

Supporting students with additional needs:
All teachers at MMI provide differentiated classroom programmes that cater for all levels of the curriculum. At MMI we have a very strong Learning Support Team who work closely with students with additional learning needs. The transition from Primary school to MMI will be carefully managed by our SENCO.
Students who require extension are catered for in their classrooms. In addition, there are Academy programmes that will be offered on a weekly basis in a variety of learning areas.
Whānau classes
The Mount Maunganui Intermediate whānau classes are not bilingual classes. Most learning occurs in English. However, Te Reo is used regularly within lessons. Mihimihi occurs each morning to start the school day and where possible, learning topics are based on Te Ao Maori concepts. We see our whānau class(s) as leaders in our kura. These classes typically lead our school in welcoming visitors and new students and staff. They are often called upon to help in the wider kura with tikanga Maori and to embody our Coastal Values.
Our whānau classes follow the MMI curriculum and follow our classroom timetable. The only timetable difference is that on Wednesday afternoons our whānau class participates in Kapahaka.
Students wanting to be considered for our 2025 whānau classes must submit an application. Placement in the class is not automatic. Like all classes at MMI, we consider balancing our classrooms with learning needs/levels, social combinations and behaviour challenges etc.
By applying for a place in the Whanau Class:
Students must be committed to the Mount Maunganui Intermediate Kapahaka roopu
Whānau must be committed to attend whanau hui. These will be held twice per term.
Whānau must show a commitment to support the education and behavioural expectations of Mount Maunganui Intermediate.
Students will uphold our school values and be role models for their class, school, whanau and community
We look forward to welcoming you to our awesome school.
