St Margaret's College Foundation and Lexus of Christchurch Partnership

The St Margaret’s College Foundation is delighted to partner with Lexus of Christchurch.

The Lexus philosophy of ‘The Pursuit of Perfection’ and Lexus’ commitment to excellence and innovation are a natural fit with the St Margaret’s College vision to create empathetic, confident and connected global citizens who value personal excellence and strive to make a positive difference. 

Lexus and St Margaret’s College also have common goals and values, and it is this alignment that has facilitated the strong connection underpinning the partnership. 

As part of this exciting partnership, Lexus provides St Margaret’s College with an electric vehicle for the school to use for a variety of purposes. This partnership is a first of its kind towards a sustainable future within New Zealand schools.

Diana Patchett, Executive Principal of St Margaret’s College, says “Our College community shares a passion with Lexus for creating a sustainable, greener future through collaboration, innovative thinking and emerging technologies. We look forward to developing our relationship through our Foundation.”

Aaron Frazer, Manager, Lexus of Christchurch, says “It is with excitement that Lexus of Christchurch and the Miles family are able to continue the relationship with the Foundation. The decision was an easy one thanks to our shared values and our combined vision to make a positive difference toward a more sustainable future.”
