Tiroa is a rural locality in the Waitomo District and Manawatū-Whanganui region of New Zealand's North Island. State Highway 30 runs through the area. The name means "tall cabbage tree". Pao Mīere, a Māori prophetic movement, built a cross-shaped whare wānanga called Te Miringa Te Kakara near Tiroa about 1887. It was destroyed by fire in 1983. Tiroa School operated from about 1900 with the buildings replaced in 1925. The school was open at least until 1958.
