Principal's message
Nau Mai, Haere Mai. The size of our school allows us the opportunity to give individual attention and support to our students as we strive to create young men and women who are morally responsible, academically focused and globally connected.
The school prides itself on the focus that it puts on character building through the Riccarton Way and its associated values: commitment, honesty, respect and excellence. Our school celebrates a high number of successes each year with academic results above national averages and a large number of our students representing the school, our province and our country in a wide variety of sporting, musical and cultural endeavours.
Riccarton High School is excited about the opening of our brand new outdoor education facility situated at Orohaki in North Canterbury at the beginning of 2020. This wonderful asset for the Riccarton High community will serve us well as we work to develop well rounded individuals who will contribute positively to society. We look forward to welcoming you to our school.
Neil Haywood, Principal.
