Bairds Mainfreight Primary School

In 1997, a primary school in Otara, Auckland, New Zealand raised eyebrows by renaming itself Bairds Mainfreight Primary School . The gesture, a first in New Zealand, was in recognition of Mainfreight’s support which had begun four years earlier.

In an ongoing relationship, Mainfreight has helped this school to be able to offer an enviable level of technology to its students and staff by providing computers and training, and also encouraging other companies to create the required computer furniture.
