Pinehurst School

Located in park-like grounds in the heart of Albany on Auckland’s North Shore, Pinehurst is a world class, co-educational independent school offering University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) from Primary through to Senior College. Welcome to Pinehurst School, where the journey to academic and personal excellence is sustained by a passion for learning and where the relationship between student, teacher and parent is paramount.

Pinehurst has an established and successful association with the University of Cambridge CIE (Cambridge International Examination) programme and a deep understanding of delivering this world class curriculum from the Primary years, through to the Junior College and Senior College.

Curriculum delivery in the classroom is underpinned by sound educational research and proven principles such as the philosophies of inquiry learning, Multiple Intelligences, and the Habits of Mind.

Pinehurst is a happy place to learn. Relationships are built on trust and understanding. Our pastoral care system supports students at all levels of the School. From Primary through Junior College to Senior College, Year Level Deans work to ensure students have programmes in place to help our students be safe in every way. The vertically grouped House system ensures that younger students have great role models and senior “friends”.
