Our school motto, Kohia nga Taikaka, establishes our commitment to provide opportunities for all students to strive for academic, sporting and creative excellence, within an aspirational and caring environment.

Our International Programme caters for students who come for both long term and short term stays.

Our school's academic focus provides a solid foundation for those who are focusing on gaining qualifications for university entrance, and our extensive co-curricular programme ensures plenty of opportunities for those who are seeking a fun cultural exchange!

International students are integrated into Avondale College's mainstream classes, and there are timetabled ESOL classes for those who need more support with the English language. Senior students have the opportunity of following NCEA or Cambridge qualification pathways.
