WELCOME to Waitaki Girls' High School

Waitaki Girls' High School is a state secondary school for girls founded in 1887 and located in Oamaru in the South Island of New Zealand.  We have a roll of about 430 girls including a good number of international students.

 

We offer a wide range of subjects, both academic and vocational, and our students achieve excellent results in national examinations. Students can enjoy a wide range of sports and cultural activities including interhouse sports, choir and drama competitions.

The school is located in beautiful grounds surrounded by well established trees and gardens.

Accommodation is available for boarders in Waitaki House which adjoins the school. Hostel staff are highly experienced and provide excellent care for our boarders. Our hostel roll has historically been about 10% of our school roll.

We hope you will enjoy finding out more about the school as you explore our website.  Please contact us if there is more information you require.
