The Scott Point Satellite Classes are located at Scott Point School in Hobsonville, Auckland. Aakonga who attend these classes are aged 5 years to 14 years and are supported with specialised teaching and therapy services. Inclusive opportunities are evident in a range of educational contexts, encouraging aakonga involvement across the Scott Point School community.
