SCHOOL OPEN DAYS<br />
Selwyn House offers a<br />
world class education<br />
Selwyn House School offers a world-class<br />
education with a talented teaching staff<br />
and small class sizes which are set within<br />
a future-focused, nurturing environment.<br />
An extensive range of educational,<br />
sporting and cultural opportunities are<br />
offered for girls in Years 1 - 8.<br />
A supportive all-girl learning<br />
environment encourages girls to take risks<br />
without fear of failure and develops their<br />
love of learning. They become confident,<br />
compassionate, articulate and determined<br />
young women who have the values, skills,<br />
and attributes needed to not only achieve<br />
their goals but to make a difference in<br />
their communities. Our teachers ensure<br />
girls are inspired and committed to<br />
learning as they develop their unique<br />
way of learning and achieving. The focus<br />
across Years 1 - 8 is on the growth of the<br />
developing girl encompassing intellectual,<br />
social, physical, emotional, and cultural<br />
needs.<br />
Selwyn House is committed to<br />
providing a continuum of international<br />
education. The combination of the<br />
International Baccalaureate Primary<br />
Years Programme (PYP) and our futurefocused<br />
STEAM and Mechatronics<br />
curriculum ensures girls are equipped to<br />
face a continually changing world with<br />
confidence and enthusiasm.<br />
We focus on instilling<br />
strong foundations which<br />
can be successfully built<br />
upon. Core learning in<br />
reading, writing and<br />
mathematics is a priority.<br />
Specialist programmes<br />
in Art, Creative Writing,<br />
Leadership, Mechatronics,<br />
Music, Performing Arts,<br />
Physical Education,<br />
Science, Spanish and<br />
Swimming play key roles to<br />
further enhancing learning.<br />
Selwyn House<br />
provides each girl with<br />
a personalised learning<br />
experience. Each classroom<br />
and specialist teacher<br />
has the time to foster<br />
meaningful relationships<br />
with each student. Due<br />
to our comprehensive<br />
learning environment,<br />
our girls are highly skilled, stand out<br />
among their peers and are prepared for a<br />
successful transition to secondary school.<br />
Selwyn House’s nurturing environment<br />
is apparent in all aspects of the school.<br />
In our modern and safe, family-oriented<br />
Boarding House, girls are supported by<br />
dedicated staff and tutors. Girls from<br />
across New Zealand and internationally<br />
fondly call the Boarding House, their<br />
‘home away from home’ and easily form a<br />
sisterhood with others.<br />
We believe in the strength of tradition,<br />
the promise of the future and the power<br />
of education. For more information on<br />
