Mathematics and Statistics is a fundamental component of the New Zealand Curriculum. By studying its principles, students gain the analytical and problem-solving skills necessary for future success. Studying Mathematics helps students recognise patterns and create models, enabling them to make sense of scientific, environmental and economic phenomena.
It is our aim to equip our students with the Mathematical skills necessary to make the most of their future. We do our best to ensure that students develop an appreciation of the beauty and order that Mathematics brings to our World as well as gaining the skills to succeed in whatever future path they choose.
