Palmerston North Girls' High School provides an outstanding education for young women from Palmerston North, the wider Manawatū region and a range of overseas countries. We are committed to providing a safe and supportive environment that enables students to become independent, curious learners and future problem solvers.
We provide an outstanding education for
young women from Palmerston North, the wider Manawatū region and a range of
overseas countries. We have a very strong record in NCEA attainment and UE along
with many high performing, prominent alumni. We are also focused on being
innovative and responsive to the changing world our young people are moving
into, through offering strong pathways to a broad range of high value
opportunities and destinations to the world of work.
We provide a wide curriculum that includes a full range of subjects at all
levels with an expectation that students will also be involved in
extracurricular sporting, artistic and/or cultural activities. We provide a
myriad of extension groups and social and ‘real world' learning opportunities
for our students. We also provide learning support based on individual needs.
Students at all levels are encouraged to take up leadership roles. These
opportunities help them develop greater self-confidence and become healthy risk
takers within our supportive environment.
We are very focused on knowing our learners and working alongside them to enable
them to flourish. Our values are based on developing young people who are
respectful, socially responsible and resilient - whakaute, whakatangata,
whakamana. Our teachers are hardworking and passionate and we have been on a
journey - which continues - of developing a learning community based on
culturally responsive and relational kaupapa and philosophy.
We invite you to visit our school and consider how we may form a learning
partnership to achieve the best outcomes for your young person's future.
