Northland College is a small co-educational secondary school in Kaikohe.

The current school values are: Aroha, Mana tangata, Kawenga Ako and Whanaungatanga.

History

Utilising buildings built for a military hospital during the Second World War, the school was opened in 1947. Originally called the Northland Agricultural and Technical College, the school was established with a farm and forestry block to provide financial support into the future.

Over its first twenty years new buildings were gradually added, and by 1968 the school had moved out of the original hospital buildings which remained a hostel.

Houses

Like many New Zealand schools, Northland College groups students into Houses for pastoral support and internal competitions. The names of the Houses have changed over the years.

First names: Clendon, Hobson, Maning, Marsden, Pompallier, Williams.

Second names: Pouerua, Putahi, Ramaroa, Whakatere

Third names: Rata, Tawa, Rimu, Kowhai

Current names: Kauri, Matai, Totara.


New school buildings

In August of 2015 the Ministry of Education approved a $14 million rebuild as the original school buildings had been allowed to deteriorate to a considerably dilapidated state. This followed considerable reporting in NZ print and television media. The newly constructed buildings were opened in July 2017.
