Classrooms

Leigh School has small class sizes and an excellent student to teacher ratio. As all of our classes are composite classes, children learn from those older than themselves and are encouraged to mentor younger students. The composition of our classes is subject to change, depending on the number of students in each year level. 

Our senior class students learn mentoring and leadership skills and actively participate in reading programmes with the younger children. Young students are encouraged and inspired by our older children, creating a whānau like atmosphere of helping and caring for each other – and we believe this results in well rounded, connected and responsible young people leaving the school at the end of their time here.
