Adventure School

Adventure School is a co-educational full primary school in Porirua, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 464 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 389. The school has been open since 1989.

With 464 students on roll, Adventure School is a large school — larger than about 78% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 389, which is well below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm. The gap of 74 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 63.3%, with a meaningful Asian community at 26.9% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.22 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
