Taradale High School offers a balance of excellent academic, cultural and sporting opportunities. The wide modern curriculum prepares students well for tertiary study. Ours is a co-educational school, of between 950-1000 students. Taradale is an attractive suburb of the beautiful sea-side city of Napier. The school is an easy five-minute walk to a convenient shopping centre, and to a new sports arena with a modern gymnasium and indoor sports facilities. The main strength of our school is its wide range of opportunities. We offer a large number of subjects, many sports and cultural opportunities, and we offer an Outdoor Education Programme specially designed for international students. Special facilities include a Technology Suite, which incorporates specialised modern workshops for the teaching of all technology subjects including Woodwork, Metalwork, Nutrition, and Textiles. Our Music & Drama Suite caters for the orchestra, various rock bands, jazz bands, chamber groups and several choirs. Individual music lessons are available to students at a very reasonable cost. The school has its own extensive sports grounds with tennis courts and gymnasium. The school arranges homestay accommodation for students. Living with a New Zealand family helps to improve English and real friendships are formed. Many students return to NZ just to visit their homestay families. Most host families live within walking distance of the school.
