Choosing a secondary school for your son or daughter can be a daunting task. Assessing if a school is the right fit for your child is one of the most important roles you have. It is with great pleasure that I introduce you to our vibrant school.
St Paul’s Collegiate School is one of New Zealand’s leading independent day and boarding secondary schools for Year 9-13 students. Our school has a reputation for providing personalised education that focuses on the individual student.
You only need to spend a short time on one of our campuses to quickly sense the spirit of excitement and the breadth of opportunity that characterises St Paul’s. With an average class size of 20 students or less, we deliver on individualised attention.
In pursuing excellence, we are committed to a culture that encourages – and expects – each
pupil to achieve the very best they can. In encouraging young people to explore their strengths, we believe that the learning process itself is as important as the results it produces. The fear of failure should never block the freedom to learn. At St Paul’s, we aim to equip our students with a level of confidence that is matched by a respect for the abilities, and interests of others. We want our students to know more so they can contribute more. Our students are encouraged
to learn academically and to grow emotionally and socially.
At the centre of St Paul’s is our community. We promote a sense of real community that creates long-lasting relationships with Collegians. This sense of community brings with it loyalty, goodwill and camaraderie among students, staff, parents, Collegians, and friends of the School.
