A World-wide Learning Community
Committed to revealing and reflecting Jesus
The Adventist Education system, with more than 150 years of experience, operates a dynamic, modern learning community that reveals and reflects Jesus and supports Christian families and their values.
From its launch in Christchurch in 1901, this community now occupies more than 20 sites in New Zealand and has more than 2,300 students. Adventist Education is an established educational presence, and its graduates are prepared to face the future with confidence.
