We are one of the largest multicultural schools in New Zealand, with 2000 students representing more than 50 nationalities, a true reflection of Auckland. This has great benefits in preparing our students for the future – a world in which multicultural connections and cultural understanding will create many opportunities for success. We are strongly led by our values of Respect, Excellence, Whanaungatanga and Akoranga. They guide how we work together as a school community, and have a powerful impact on achievement across academic, sporting and cultural endeavours.
