Co-located site, sharing the Orua Paeroa campus with partner school, Shirley Boys’ High School.
Following the devastation of the 2011 Christchurch earthquakes, Avonside Girls’ High School has been rebuilt on a new co-located site, sharing the Orua Paeroa campus with partner school, Shirley Boys’ High School, with each school retaining its unique culture, identity and teaching spaces but sharing some key facilities. While a few years into operation now, the schools’ facilities are still the envy of many, and staff and students alike enjoy the opportunities the new campus offers.
