The College
Balanced foundations, bright futures

At St Margaret's College we embody the spirit of ambition for the 21st Century: to invest in women of the future on a scale that honours the vision of our founders.

For over 110 years, we have been at the forefront of girls' education in Christchurch, New Zealand, redefining what it means to empower young women to achieve their full potential.

Our College has an extensive history of setting girls up for success, with a focus on delivering among the best academic results both in New Zealand and internationally.

We measure our success not just by academic achievements but by the fulfilled lives our Old Girls lead - Wahine Toa who have defied norms, exceeded expectations, and who make meaningful contributions to society. 

As we look to the future, our College continues to make history with a clear vision - to create empathetic, confident and connected global citizens, who value personal excellence and strive to make a positive difference. Together, we are more than a College; we are a community committed to providing the balanced foundations that empower girls to learn, live and lead, for generations to come.
