Overview
Gisborne Girls' High School has a tradition of hosting students from all over the world, particularly from Asia and the Pacific although we have hosted exchange students from many other regions. We successfully prepare students for university and polytechnic study. Our school has high standards of behaviour and we place emphasis on achievement and participation. We are proud of our safe and caring environment.
We welcome your daughter as an international student.
We provide an English for Speakers of Other Languages ( ESOL ) programme where your daughter will work with qualified staff alongside other international students.
We provide excellent hostel accommodation at the High Schools' Hostel near the school, or we can arrange homestay accommodation. All Year 9,10, and 11 students are placed in the Hostel.
We are big enough to offer a wide range of subjects and activities but small enough to be friendly and protective.
We have a Director of International Students who will meet your daughter at the airport. She will ensure your daughter feels welcome and secure at Girls' High.
We provide deans and counsellors for academic, careers and personal guidance.
We will introduce your daughter to school life with an orientation programme.
