A New Zealand education delivered by teachers of the highest quality is the cornerstone of the many features that attract International students from around the world to our school.
Here they are cared for in a supportive and inclusive environment, encouraged to take part in all aspects of school life where they can make friends and try new experiences. This enables our International students to feel secure in reaching for the height of academic achievement that sees Mount Albert Grammar placed among the top 5 schools in New Zealand.
We are one of the top sporting schools in the country, and offer a wealth of opportunities for International students to follow their sporting passion, or try something new.
Our arts and culture programmes are also varied, and many International students enjoy being part of performance groups.
We value our International students as much as they value being here – they add to the cultural diversity that makes Mount Albert Grammar School such an interesting and enjoyable place to learn.
I look forward to meeting your students in the near future,
Patrick Drumm

I am aware of that and want to assure you that the International staff will support your child in developing both personally and academically.

We love working with International students and being part of their future success.
