It is our mission to be an integral member of the Milldale community. A place for all people of the community to come together, to share in our learning and to support one another.

We will have a large, modern hall available for the community - sports, parties, social events.

We will hold community information evenings. If you have ideas about these please contact admin@ahutoetoe.school.nz

We plan to nurture our surrounding environment by looking after the adjacent bush.
