School History & Details

Oamaru, New Zealand educator Florence Emily Green, who was strongly religious, started NEGS in 1895. The school's mission was to equip girls with a well-rounded education that prioritized Christian values to better prepare them for the challenges of the twenty-first century. Known as "Akaroa," the school's original structure housed a sizable classroom, an office, and boarding quarters. The original classroom, now known as the "W.H. Lee Room" after the school's architect, is utilized for meetings and events. Today, the building serves as the administration center for the school.
