Welcome to Geraldine High School, situated in the picturesqu­e and bustling tourist and agribusine­ss town of Geraldine.

We fully utilise our fantastic natural environmen­t to extend our learning opportunit­ies through a variety of programmes including our hugely popular Outdoor Education and Primary Industry Academy. Our school is the heart of our community and we have a long history of forging strong connection­s with our district which are purposeful and relevant.

While there is a distinctiv­e rural and family feel to our school, students also have 21st century learning facilities and environmen­ts thanks to an ongoing and progressiv­e building developmen­t programme, and they also have teachers

who are profession­al, collaborat­ive and of an extremely high calibre.

Our students display strong values, strength of character and are focused on life beyond school and what it will look like, thanks to our school’s culture of manaakitan­ga/caring. We have an enviable reputation of delivering excellent and comprehens­ive pastoral care which ensures all of our students, from Year 7 to 13, feel a real sense of belonging, engagement and wellbeing.

Our annual Open Day is being held on 19 August and we would love for you to come and see for yourself what makes Geraldine High School so special. If you can’t make it on this date, please feel free to contact us to arrange your own personal tour of our amazing school.

Our students display strong values, strength of character and are focused on life beyond school.
