Catholic Cathedral<br />
College -<br />
To live by faith<br />
Catholic Cathedral College is first and<br />
foremost a Catholic school and for 150 years<br />
Catholic children of Christchurch have been<br />
educated on this site. We aim to produce<br />
graduates who are confident, compassionate,<br />
connected citizens, willing to make a positive<br />
contribution to our society with a focus on<br />
faith, justice and equity.<br />
As the only co-ed Catholic College in<br />
Christchurch, with a vibrant mix of ethnicities,<br />
we offer excellent preparation for life.<br />
We have a strong focus on our bicultural<br />
heritage and all students from Year 7 to 9<br />
learn Te Reo Maori.<br />
We encourage our students to strive for<br />
excellence and have had sustained excellent<br />
academic results over recent years for all students,<br />
including Maori and Pasifika students,<br />
across all three levels of NCEA.<br />
Our Vocational Pathways programme<br />
offers individualised programmes giving students<br />
access to a range of tertiary providers.<br />
If you are looking for a Catholic faith-based<br />
education, please visit us on our Open Evening<br />
and experience the special atmosphere<br />
and sense of family that is so evident.<br />
Cashmere High<br />
School – future ready<br />
The good thing about our unpredictable<br />
and changeable future is that it comes one<br />
day at a time – and humans have successfully<br />
navigated dramatic changes and shifts<br />
in periods of our history. Schools, like other<br />
businesses, are busy thinking and planning<br />
to best prepare for the complex modern<br />
and technologically focused future world.<br />
Cashmere is a school with clear direction in<br />
a time of uncertainty.<br />
Here at Cashmere High School<br />
we are future ready, thanks to<br />
our new property works,<br />
successful implementation<br />
of our BYOD (Bring Your<br />
Own Device) programme,<br />
personalised learning<br />
pathways and consistently<br />
excellent educational outcomes.<br />
Mark Wilson, Principal<br />
We have just completed Stage<br />
1, and are well into Stage 2, of our<br />
Christchurch Schools Rebuild programme.<br />
This will deliver modern vibrant facilities<br />
that provide good conditions (e.g. acoustics<br />
and temperature), are digitally connected<br />
(e.g. wifi), and allow for genuinely flexible<br />
learning (e.g. both traditional and innovative<br />
approaches). All our students use their own<br />
digital device (BYOD) to learn not only the<br />
content but also digital skills (e.g. cybersafey)<br />
to equip them for the modern world.<br />
SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Yet learning is not restricted to digital tools,<br />
with plenty of time for physical exercise and<br />
hands-on practical experiences. Our personalised<br />
learning includes offering broad<br />
curriculum choices and relevant support for<br />
both gifted and talented and those requiring<br />
learning support.<br />
Our consistently outstanding NCEA results<br />
open up personalised pathways for students<br />
– whether this involves moving<br />
onto higher tertiary studies<br />
(e.g. universities) or through<br />
into trades and apprenticeships.<br />
Our staff recognise<br />
and support students to<br />
find their own individual<br />
passions and future pathways.<br />
As a community state school<br />
we also offer our students a safe environment<br />
to socially mix with a wide range<br />
of students and develop the competencies<br />
to live and work in a diverse global society.<br />
We are proud of our mission statement that<br />
means we focus on “developing both the<br />
intellect and character of our students” – in<br />
order to craft well balanced young people<br />
confident in realising their potential in the<br />
modern world.<br />
