Glenavon School is located in Auckland, New Zealand. Glenavon school offers education from pre-school (kindergarten) through to Year 8. A special school is also on the campus.

History

Glenavon School opened in 1955 after considerable effort was made in clearing the swampy land for construction of the facilities. The school is the first school in New Zealand to be built entirely on fill.

Sports

There are four sports houses used in competitions such as Athletics Day and Crosscountry. They are:

  • Fergusson (blue)
  • Hobson (gold)
  • Fitzroy (red)
  • Bledisloe (green)

These houses are based on prominent English soldiers who have contributed to the protection and development of the British Empire.

There are a variety of sports available for the children to join. There are mixed teams in rugby and cricket. Annual events such as Crosscountry and Athletics are participated in by the students.

Academic

Glenavon School follows the New Zealand Curriculum as set out by the Ministry of Education (New Zealand). However, the exception is Religious Education. Students in Years 4 to 8 have the option to attend religious studies.

Other facilities on the site

As well as the Primary and Intermediate School on the campus, Glenavon School also has an Early Childhood centre for pre-school aged children and also a Special School called Oaklynn. Although these two facilities are on the campus they operate autonomously to that of the school.

Future school design

The school has made an information centre to be used as a multi-purpose room for various subjects, from cooking to scientific experiments.
