Welcome to our school founded in 1891 on the shores of Colville Bay in the Coromandel.

The Colville School Community has a rich history from early maori times through to early settlers, including gum diggers, timber millers and gold prospectors followed by farmers. A new wave of settlement began in the 1970's with the establishment of number of communes, causing the wider community to become very diverse. The population is widely scattered from Sandy Bay and Port Charles in the North to Waitete Bay in the South and East to Little Bay.
