Founded in 1881, Whangarei Girls’ High School is a dynamic and vibrant school community dedicated to excellence and one where students will leave well prepared to meet the challenges and opportunities in their futures. Student success and achievement lies at the heart of all our decision making and we aim for each and every one of our students to leave us as confident, well-balanced and successful global citizens. Our curriculum at all levels provides quality learning in all the learning areas, including Te Reo Maori and foreign languages, with leading art and technology courses and technological learning systems. It caters for all strengths and interests and reflects a strong commitment to our bi-cultural heritage. Education outside the classroom is an integral part of making learning relevant for students. We value the close working relationship we have with parents, whanau and the wider community. We “empower tomorrow’s women” to be leaders, to make positive contributions to society and to have the skills, knowledge, values, attitudes and aptitudes required to be able to follow the career path of their choice. We are proud of our academic, sporting and cultural successes and the countless opportunities we provide our students, supporting them to become our future leaders.
