Tihoi Venture School is a purpose-built residential and outdoor education campus, designed for students to live, learn and take on challenges together.
The campus includes nine student houses, each accommodating eight students. The houses are equipped with traditional coal-range stoves, adding to the practical, hands-on nature of life at Tihoi. The campus has a large dining hall where students and staff come together for meals, purpose-built classrooms, staff accommodation and an outdoor chapel.
Many of Tihoi’s outdoor activities are also based on site, including:
Beyond the campus, Tihoi’s location provides access to some of the central North Island’s best outdoor environments. The neighbouring Pureora Forest is used for tramping, mountain biking, bushcraft and survival activities. Lake Taupō is approximately 30 km away, with rivers and the mountains of the central North Island also within reach for outdoor expeditions and activities.
