The maximum roll of the school is 305 set by the school’s Integration Agreement 8 September 1981. The children attending the school are drawn from all of the Porirua East area, extending from Ascot Park in the north to Ranui Heights in the south. They represent a number of different cultures, with the predominant groups being 90% Polynesian, 9% Maori and 1% Asian.

There is a strong sense of community within the school and every encouragement is given to parent participation within the various aspects of the programmes of the school. There exists a valued tradition of leadership and quality education delivery by all staff. This is seen as essential to bringing about the expectations of the community for the education of their children.

The school continues to recognise the cultural diversity of New Zealand; and, in particular the importance of Maori as the foundation community of New Zealand.
