TRADITION, INNOVATION, EXCELLENCE 

St Margaret's College is an independent day and boarding school for Year 1- 13 girls. St Margaret's was founded on Anglican Christian values and has a proud history of academic, sporting and cultural success. Students are offered a world class learning and leadership experience.  St Margaret's is the only school in Christchurch to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (Years 12-13). Our girls are offered an opportunity to complete an internationally recognised and highly regarded qualification with a philosophy that fits closely with the holistic philosophy and vision of the school. As our girls leave the school gates at the end of their time at St Margaret's they will be fully equipped to be global citizens and the providers for and of the next generation of New Zealanders.

WORLD CLASS - INSIDE AND OUT

To ensure the college's facilities and buildings match the world class teaching and learning that takes place within them a campus directional plan has been developed.

Several projects have been completed including:

• a heated 25 metre swimming pool
• wet hockey turf
• netball and tennis courts
• restoration of historic Kilburn House
• the library, e learning centre and 12 classrooms
• internationally specified gymnasium and fitness centre
• extension of the senior boarding accommodation
• chapel and auditorium

A new music centre will be completed later this year. The college is committed to the completion of the projects and the continuing development of a 21st century learning campus.  

These are exciting times as the vision for a world class campus becomes reality.
