Our Facilities

Our campus hosts modern, world-class facilities while celebrating St Margaret's College's heritage and founding values.

Our learning facilities

A future-proofed learning environment attracts teachers who are leaders in their field and provides students with a safe and inspirational space in which to learn. Our buildings combine old with new, following the rebuilding of 80 percent of our campus in the wake of the Canterbury earthquakes. Regardless of age, each building houses world class facilities and contributes to our College’s strong sense of whānau.
