Plans are underway for some additional schooling facilities in the area. Zoning issues are still to be determined but there is an excellent offering of both public and private schools in the general area that could be an option for you and your children to consider. In addition school buses to and from many of Auckland’s private primary and secondary schools service the Karaka/Papakura/Drury areas.

Following is a list of schools that are close to Karaka Lakes. For more information please refer to the Education Review Office’s website for the latest reports on these schools at www.ero.govt.nz
