Kia Ora! I extend a warm Southern welcome to you and your family. 

My role is to ensure that students are cared for and given the information they need. 

Our goal is that International students who chose to study at St Peter's become confident, connected, life-long learners. We support them to reach their academic potential and achieve the goals they set. Many of our students complete their NCEA schooling with us and this enables them to enter universities around the world.

We encourage and nurture the students to embrace New Zealand culture. St Peter's College boasts a  safe, family valued approach means that your child will be well supported and cared for during their time with us.

Our History

Our Principal

Kia Ora, welcome and thank you for your interest in St Peter’s College.

At St Peter’s we are concerned with educating the whole person and this is reflected in our catch phrase Preparation for Life. We are justifiably proud of our academic results as seen in our NCEA results. As well as the importance we place on this, we believe that a good school is about much more than academic success alone. Our students enjoy and excel in a wonderful variety of sporting and cultural activities outside the classroom.
​
Students at St Peter’s benefit from outstanding pastoral care and guidance offered by our committed teachers and dedicated support staff. For boarders and international students we offer superb family-styled accommodation to support them and their families throughout their time at St Peter’s College.
I would be delighted to welcome you in person to visit St Peter’s College, to meet our students and staff, and to share with you some of the very exciting features of our remarkable school.
