About Raumati Beach School

Raumati Beach School is a co-educational full primary school in Raumati Beach, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 534 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 423. The school has been open since 1953.

With 534 students on roll, Raumati Beach School is a large school — larger than about 83% of New Zealand schools.
