Whangaparāoa College
- Stanmore Bay Secondary School
- Hibiscus Coast Intermediate School
Whangaparāoa College is a co-educational state secondary school on the Hibiscus Coast of New Zealand. It was built on the same site as, and absorbed, Hibiscus Coast Intermediate School, with the only other state secondary school on the Hibiscus Coast being Orewa College.[4] The decile 9 school serves Years 7 to 13. Opened officially in 2005, the founding principal was Brian O'Connell, who served until 2012.[5] James Thomas took over the principal role in 2012.[6] The current principal is Steve McCracken.[7]
It has a roll of 1,815[2] learners (as at February 2024), including international students. The school is in a high socio-economic area (high decile number), and has tight zoning rules where students must live to attend the school. This method prevents overcrowding.
Being a new school, the facilities and technology used are leaders in the New Zealand education system, positioned on an environmentally aware site. 2006 saw the rise of two new high decile schools in Metropolitan Auckland, Whangaparāoa College and Botany Downs Secondary School.
