Pakuranga College

Our college provides a very special learning environment. It is focused on developing outstanding citizens who are moral and respectful. We place an emphasis on ownership of learning and being actively involved so that our students are well equipped to succeed in the future.

Students are encouraged to be interactive with teachers, technology and their peers to develop real understanding and, most importantly, to apply their knowledge to problem-solving. Rather than becoming repositories of knowledge, we expect students to find out, investigate and create solutions using the many resources around them.

Pakuranga College prides itself on providing a student centred learning environment. The philosophy that underpins our Learning Charter and every facet of daily life in the school places students at the centre of our thinking.
