Open Days
Ngā rā tuwhera
Open Days are a chance to see St Andrew’s in action, meet our people, and experience the College community first-hand. Each March, families are welcomed onto campus for guided tours, conversations with staff and students, and opportunities to explore the learning, co-curricular, sporting, and pastoral life of the College.
Which Open Day should I attend?
St Andrew’s holds separate Open Day experiences for families interested in the Secondary School, Years 9–13, and the Preparatory School and Pre-school, Ages 2–Year 8. This allows families to focus on the stage of learning most relevant to their child.
Visit St Andrew’s College at our Secondary School Open Day on 3 March 2027 or our Preparatory School and Pre-school Open Day on 4 March 2027. Registrations opening soon.
