Selwyn College, Auckland

Selwyn College (Māori: Te Kāreti o Herewini) is a co-educational state secondary school in Kohimarama, Auckland, New Zealand.

Selwyn College was built in 1956[3][4] to service Auckland's rapidly growing suburban sprawl during the post-war population boom[5] and newly developed areas such as Meadowbank–St.

Selwyn also holds an annual multicultural show, featuring performances from the many ethnic and cultural groups represented in the school's community.

[10] In 2002, Selwyn College hosted the filming of a popular TV3 television documentary series called School Rules which followed the lives of several of its students.

Academic results, while never as bad as the school's critics made out, have noticeably improved since 2008, with a Selwyn year 12 pupil topping New Zealand in one of the 2009 Cambridge International AS Level Examinations.

[15] In 2016, the principal Sheryll Ofner won the 2017 Woolf Fisher Award for Education and Excellence which included an 11 week trip to Harvard University and across Europe.
