We are a secondary school in Upper Hutt, New Zealand, located 30km from Wellington CBD - the capital city of New Zealand. We have over 700 students, both boys and girls, ranging in age from 12 to 18 years. The school is situated in the picturesque Hutt River valley.

Heretaunga College holds its own with New Zealand's best secondary schools. Not only do we offer an excellent education, but we believe our leadership, staff, facilities and programmes are also first class.

Heretaunga College focuses on the individual worth of each person and we make efforts to keep the environment caring and student-centred.

Proposed Amendment to Enrolment Scheme - Home Zone

The Heretaunga College Board of Trustees is in the process of developing an amendment to the current enrolment scheme as directed by the Ministry of Education Under section 11H(1) of the Education Act 1989. 

All students who live within the home zone shall be entitled to enrol at the school.

Details of the proposed amendment to reduce the home zone boundaries, the written description and the map can be found on our website www.heretaunga.school.nz or from our school office.

We are currently waiting on the Ministry of Education recommendation for the Proposed Enrolment Scheme - Home Zone.
