Compassion, Respect, Integrity, Fairness, Excellence
Welcome to Westlake Girls High School. We believe by inspiring our students to love learning, they will leave us as confident, robust, optimistic young women who are proud citizens of New Zealand and equipped for global success. Through our goals of Academic Achievement, Personal Growth and Hauora, we encourage our students to be curious, creative thinkers who respect themselves and others, and care for their community and environment. With a proud history, and exciting future, we’d love you to join us on our journey.

A Happy Balance
Our academic results consistently track above national outcomes, but there’s so much more to Westlake Girls than a strong academic record. It’s a place all students can call home, as we celebrate and embrace ethnic and cultural diversity It’s a place to be adventurous with more than 30 clubs, a host of sports teams and a wide range of drama, dance and music ensembles. It’s a place to belong, as students become responsible global citizens by actively taking part in the community around them.

Fundraising at Westlake
We provide a dynamic and stimulating learning environment, but there’s one thing we’re missing – a gathering place for students. A hub. We’ve outgrown our 1957 hall and in late 2019 it was demolished to make way for our purpose-built Event Centre – a new heart for our school community where students can meet, connect, celebrate, and grow as young leaders. As we raise the final amount we need to complete the Event Centre, we have several exciting gifting options for you to become part of this history-making project.
STUDYING IN NEW ZEALAND
