Timeline and Plans
2002 - The school was built very quickly. There were some delays due to a complaint filed by a community member with the council in its early development stages. Luckily, the construction of the buildings began on site, and the school opened in January 2003.
2003 - Rototuna Primary School opened for its first school year. The administration block staffroom and library, Rata and Kowhai Hub, which had only six classrooms, were created, while a new hub named Totara was still in progress. Also, a small playground was created outside the Kowhai hub for the junior kids to play on. Mr Cowie made his office in a little 'hut' at the front of the school.
