The only junior high in a farming district.
Waipu Junior High was founded in 1968 as the sole junior high school serving all of Waipu District. Its original campus was later rebuilt after being deemed seismically insufficient following the 921 earthquake. As Waipu's only junior high, it draws students from farming communities scattered across the district, which sits between the Dajia and Da'an rivers.
