Tarawera High School

The Project

The Tarawera High Story

Tiger Turf was delighted to be part of
the new build of Tarawera High School,
a modern learning centre with outdoor
sports facilities available for the entire
community.

All Weather Sports Facility

The outdoor areas at Tarawera High
School were not great. So TigerTurf
was asked to design an all-weather,
high performance sports facility that
could be used throughout the year by
both students and the community and
accommodate several different sports.
With no hockey fields near enough for
the students to practise on regularly, a
hockey pitch was near the top of the list.
