School Introduction

St Heliers School is a welcoming community that stands for excellence in academic achievement and fosters independent, well-rounded students. The school is a community that is innovative and encouraging, where sound values underpin all school activities. 

St Heliers School is a Full Primary (Year 1-8) Co-Educational located in Auckland, New Zealand and has approximately 640 students enrolled. 

The teaching teams are Y0-2 (Terehu Team), Y3-4 (Paikea Team), Y5-6 (Pakakē) and Y7-8 (Kākahi).

"Our aim is to guide and nurture each student to reach their potential in all areas of school life. Integral to achieving this aim is having a close partnership between home and school.
Discussions between parents and teachers about student progress and achievement are encouraged.
Being a full primary (Years 1 to 8) we are in a unique position to see the development of the students from young bright-eyed 5 year olds to young adolescents. From the earliest stages of their schooling, students are encouraged to be independent, responsible learners.
Older students are expected to look out for younger students. At the start of the year senior classes are buddied up with a junior class to support the children in various aspects of their schooling. This also helps to create the family atmosphere we want at St Heliers."
