SCHOOL OPEN DAYS<br />

Selwyn House<br />

SOUTHERN VIEW<br />

Selwyn House School is the only school in<br />

Christchurch offering a girls’ only education<br />

from years 1 through to 8. We believe that<br />

combination, of a girls’ only education that<br />

takes students from their earliest school years<br />

right through to high school, is what gives our<br />

students the strongest start to their secondary<br />

education.<br />

Our carefully crafted programme focuses<br />

on developing ‘the total girl’, who has the<br />

confidence, resilience, foundational knowledge,<br />

creativity and compassion to succeed and lead<br />

in the future. We help students identify their<br />

own strengths and talents and tap into each girl’s<br />

unique potential so that they leave this school<br />

with the self-confidence and skill-set they need<br />

to thrive at secondary school and beyond.<br />

At Selwyn House we believe leaders are made,<br />

not born, and that is why we put a particular<br />

focus on leadership in the Senior School. In<br />

comparison to other intermediate or middle<br />

school high school programmes, our Year 7 and<br />

8 students have the distinct advantage of being<br />

the senior students in their school. Every girl<br />

has the opportunity to serve in leadership roles<br />

and the high number of Selwyn House students<br />

that then go on to assume leadership roles<br />

in their secondary schools, and later in their<br />

careers, speaks for itself.<br />

We understand girls at Selwyn House and<br />

we know how important it is for our students<br />

to feel supported and encouraged as they work<br />

through those crucial development stages<br />

between Years 1 and 8. Our students are able to<br />

negotiate these formative years within a safe and<br />

nurturing environment, where they are able to<br />

be themselves, safely challenge themselves, and<br />

develop a strong sense of self-worth.<br />

House School education the best start to<br />
