“With more than a hundred and fifty years of illustrious academic and sporting tradition to reflect upon, Collegiate students continue to be the school’s greatest, and most abiding, legacy. We believe that by fostering important values such as honour, integrity, compassion and courage, we can promote the development of versatile, well-rounded young people, who are capable of making strong contributions to society.” Tim Wilbur - Headmaster Visitors to Collegiate will often comment that our students look happy. And it’s true, they do. This is because Wanganui Collegiate is a community in the very real sense – it’s close-knit, secure, stable and with family values at its core. The Christian values upon which the school was founded have never been more important than they are today, and form the bedrock of the school’s ethos. The school provides education for boys and girls from Years 1 to 13 (ages 5 to 18) on two campuses. All students are offered the opportunity to explore and develop their own strengths and character within a safe and supportive environment. Wanganui Collegiate has a clear vision for education – that academic learning is just one facet in the development of a young person. Equally important are the cultural, social and sporting aspects of their lives. This is education in its broadest sense and the results are happy, independent and well-rounded young people.
