Ko Hāto Petera Ināianei - Hāto Petera Today

The Hāto Petera whānau whānui, kaumātua and the Catholic Bishop of Auckland are working together to restore the mauri of the Hāto Petera site through a re-purposing project in the spirit of the Crown grant.

Hāto Petera College has a proud history and tradition of supporting Māori through education. Although the school closed in 2018, the re-purposing project is a way in which the Hāto Petera College site can serve another generation to secure successful outcomes for people, their whānau, hapū, iwi and society. To find out more about the repurposing project check the About page or the FAQ.
