Hare Krishna School
Located in beautiful and peaceful surroundings in New Zealand, our school is just 100 meters away from the Hare Krishna temple in North West Auckland. Established in 1982, the Hare Krishna School is New Zealand’s sole Year 1 to Year 10 institution based on the values of sanatana-dharma.
We seamlessly blend the excellence of New Zealand Aotearoa education with the authentic teachings and values of Krishna-bhakti.
Academic Excellence
With unwavering dedication, our teachers set high expectations to ensure students not only achieve outstanding academic excellence across the New Zealand Curriculum but also cultivate a strong foundation of core values that will serve them throughout their lives.
Integrated with the New Zealand curriculum, students participate in our Sastra curriculum, delving into sacred texts while learning Sanskrit for deeper insights.
Spiritual Values
The Hare Krishna School promotes the development of personal qualities, attitudes and behaviours from which our values Wisdom, Respect and Joy (WRJ) are nurtured. WRJ Learners who develop these traits and demonstrate these behaviours will be of benefit to others, society and the planet.
Our nurturing environment fosters meaningful, healthy, and respectful relationships, creating a safe and confident space for learning.
