Whāia te iti kahurangi, ki te tuohu koe, me he maunga teitei Seek the treasure that you value most dearly, if you bow your head, let it be to a lofty mountain.

On March 15 we remembered and acknowledged the third anniversary of the Christchurch Mosque attacks

Solving the world, one challenge at a time!

Avonside Year 13 PE had absolute cricket royalty korero with us in order to help with our understanding of the impact of the Cricket World Cup that New Zealand recently hosted.

Our Year 13 LEAP students got out for a little bit of of tuakana-teina with our Year 10 Ready for Adventure class by focusing on outdoor safety while leading them through Cave Stream.

AGHS Staff – see who you can recognise!!

Avonside has over 70 years history of students participating in fencing as a sport (the longest in Christchurch).

Last year Microsoft ran an online event series where Year 9 and 10 wahine could tune into inspiring digital tech speakers, see amazing uses of tech and have hands-on experiences.

The history of Avonside Girls' High School includes a focus on the legacy of each past Principal.
