Sitting atop the Takapuna cliffs and boasting commanding views of Rangitoto Island and the Waitemata Harbour, Takapuna Grammar School possesses presence and history. Students enjoy a learning environment which encompasses twelve hectares of groomed grounds and playing fields with a combination of heritage protected buildings and modern built-for-purpose educational blocks.

Located in the safest area in New Zealand – Auckland’s North Shore, the school lies a 40 minute walk or five minute bus ride from the seaside village of Devonport which offers an independent movie theatre, cafés and a newly completed modern library.

International Students: As the Director of International Faculty, it is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all international students, parents and education agents. Our school provides a unique and enriching educational experience for students from diverse cultures and linguistic backgrounds, preparing them for success in an increasingly interconnected world.

Co-Curricular Opportunities: The Performing Arts are a strength and special feature of life at Takapuna Grammar School. We are known in the wider community for our excellence in this field. We are a high-performing learning area driven by enthusiastic students who create a dance evening at the Bruce Mason, a full school musical and cabarets during the year. Performance groups excel at regional and national events. Classes encourage passion for high achievement in our subjects. We are the only school in New Zealand to offer a specialist musical theatre programme for NCEA.

Special Education Faculty: Takapuna Grammar School’s Special Education Faculty is the only example of its kind on the North Shore. Our Faculty is embedded into the culture of the wider school and offers an inclusive community feeling while providing specialist teaching and learning.

Our students are verified under the Ongoing Resourcing Scheme (ORS) and we cater for students with a range of physical and learning challenges.
