Whangamata Area School has a strong Physical Education Department.

 

We offer Physical Education as an option at years 11 – 13, it is a subject for the National Certificate in Educational Achievement at years 11 -13. In all these programmes there is an excellent balance of practical to theory requirements. In Bursary Physical Education the topics range from windsurfing to mountain biking to skiing. The school offers and encourages students to participate in a wide range of sporting opportunities, including, athletics, swimming, cricket, rugby, soccer, basketball and netball. Whangamata is well known for its surf beach and a number of current and past students have represented New Zealand in International surfing competitions

 
 
 
Our children require, as part of a fully rounded education, a knowledge and understanding of New Zealand culture.  An education which acknowledges the significant contribution Maori language and culture makes as part of its culture is an enriching one. Students are encouraged to take part in the cultural life of the school including Drama, Music and Kapa Haka
