Education
Westminster Christian School was established in 1981 to provide education for children of Christian families, using a Christ-centred curriculum founded on a Biblical World View. It is an inter-denominational, state-integrated, co-educational, full primary school for students from New Entrant to Year 8. The school roll in 2017 sits around 300.
The school is set on a sunny, 2 ½ hectare site in Albany, on Auckland’s North Shore. The clean environment and well-established trees provide a peaceful backdrop to modern buildings, classrooms and playgrounds.
