Dairy Flat is a rural district 8 km south of Orewa beach in the North Island of New Zealand, 28 km north of central Auckland. Until the early 1990s most of the district was in dairy farms of 40 to 60 hectares (100 to 150 acres), but with the growth of Auckland City and the extension of the Northern Motorway into the area, these are being gradually subdivided into lifestyle blocks of around 2 to 5 hectares (5 to 12 acres), many of which are grazing sheep, horses, beef cattle or deer. Although it still retains a rural character, it is counted as part of the Auckland urban area in official statistics. The population of Dairy Flat and the surrounding area was 2,151 in the 2006 Census, an increase of 504 from 2001. 'Dairy Flat' lies within the Rodney District on State Highway 1 and State Highway 17. There is a small village shopping centre and the Dairy Flat Primary School. A major facility is the North Shore Aerodrome owned and operated by the North Shore Aero Club. In addition to club and private aircraft, the field is used by Great Barrier Airlines to run a scheduled air service in 12 seat aircraft to Great Barrier Island, some 40 nm (75 km) offshore. ==Education== Dairy Flat School is a coeducational full primary (years 1-8) school with a decile rating of 10 and a roll of 219.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Te Kete Ipurangi - Dairy Flat School )〕 The school was established in 1878.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dairy Flat School - Home Page )〕 The secondary schools serving Dairy Flat are Orewa College, Westlake Boys High School, Westlake Girls High School, Long Bay College and Rangitoto College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Our School )〕 Catholic students usually commute to St Mary's College or St Peter's College. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dairy Flat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
