Hīpoki ake te wairua i te tihi o Maungarangi, ko Tīria e kōmiomio ana ki raro rā.

Whakawhiti atu ki te karamatamata o Whakataha, titiro whakararo ki Waitangi e rere ana.

E koko e te wairua ki Pūtahi maunga, tū te ao, tū te pō.  Tēnā koe e tū mai nā hei āhuru mōwai mō tātou katoa.  Ka tau mai nei te wairua ki Ōtuhi, he wāhi hākari mō te iwi.

Nei te uri whakaheke o Ngāti Kōpaki, Ngāti Te Ara, Ngāti Hine, Ngāi Tāwake ki te Tuawhenua, Ngā Puhi e whakamānawa atu ki a koutou katoa.

We are a Co-Educational Secondary School of 295 students situated in the heart of Kaikohe. The school maintains a strong connection to its original foundations by offering alternative pathways at the completion of Year 13, in a number of trades and services.

Our Agriculture programme allows students to undertake both practical and theory based learning before undertaking full-time study through Telford & the Southern Institute of Technology. We also have a full-time Services Academy that prepares students wishing to enter the Police, Navy, Army and Airforce as careers.

Our Hospitality and Catering programme supports students wishing to enter the growing industry of tourism and hospitality. These opportunities continue to grow both nationally and internationally. This year Carpentry was re-established to help fill the shortage of apprentice builders being experienced nationwide.

In 2017, our new school was opened, allowing us to be innovative and deliver programmes of learning in a Modern Learning Environment. This continues to develop as we embrace a wānanga approach to our project based and integrated learning programmes in Years 9-10.  Our Bi-lingual programme, Te Toi Rangi, continues to grow and enrich our students to be confident and connected to their Māori identity, language and culture.

Manaakitia te tangata, ahakoa ko wai, ahakoa nō hea

Treat people respectfully, irrespective of who they are or where they come from.

Underpinning our Vision to ensure all our students succeed is the fundamental belief that it takes hard work to strive for their best academic qualification. We have an experienced and committed team of teachers here at Northland College to ensure that the highest levels of academic achievement can be obtained through focus and determination.  We continue to increase the number of subjects in the senior school that align with an educational approach to learning; STEAM. It uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking.

I warmly welcome you to visit the school in person and to meet our amazing students and teachers here at Northland College. To arrange a visit, please contact myself or our administration team below;  duanea@northlandcollege.school.nz  or admin@northlandcollege.school.nz

Tēnā koutou e te whānau
