List of schools in the Gisborne District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of schools located in the Gisborne District of New Zealand.[1][2]

Kura Kaupapa Māori schools are schools for children aged 3–14 who learn fully in the Māori language. This starts at kōhanga reo which is the Māori equivalent of kindergarten.

This list does not include proposed schools such as Waikirikiri High School. The area where it was supposed to be built is now a sports field and park, Waikirikiri Reserve.

The rolls given here are those provided by the Ministry of Education, based on figures from March 2026.[3]
