Parents & Boarding
St Margaret's College works in close partnership with parents and families as we support our students to be the best they can be, in both their academic and co‑curricular activities.
-
We invite boarding families to informal drinks before major events in the College calendar, such as the start of the school year, Senior Ball and Prizegivings, to strengthen connections within our community.
-
At the end of Term 1, the mothers of our boarders go out for lunch before collecting their daughters for the Term Break. Spanning all boarders’ age groups, this lunch supports relationship building between boarding families.
-
We host a series of community events around New Zealand, enabling us to connect with our boarding families on their home turf. Attended by the Executive Principal and senior boarding staff, these events are a great opportunity to strengthen the partnership between boarding and home.
-
Fathers come from far and wide for the legendary cooked breakfast and to spend quality time with their girls. Organised by our Parents and Friends Association, these breakfasts operate by year group and always include a guest speaker.
