OHS Learning Culture
Onehunga High School prides itself on a holistic education, with academic achievement at the forefront, supported by pastoral attentiveness. A strong learning culture is underpinned by agreed learner expectations. We are a safe school and we expect all students to be respectful at all times, exemplifying our behaviour for learning values at all times. The importance of physical and emotional safety at the school is highlighted carefully at the enrolment interview and reinforced on a daily basis. Every student has the right to a rich and enjoyable education at OHS. 

We challenge students to achieve their best as well as providing the care and support necessary for their personal growth and development. Students are prepared for life, growing intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically.

Behaviour Expectations 

At Onehunga High School, high standards of behaviour are essential to maintaining a safe, respectful, and focused learning environment. These expectations reflect our school values of Respect, Resilience, Integrity, and Excellence, and apply at all times—during the school day, while travelling to and from school, and at any school-related event.

As part of the enrolment process, all students and their parents or caregivers sign a Behaviour Agreement. This agreement, completed at the point of enrolment, outlines the school’s expectations regarding uniform, attendance, respectful conduct, appropriate use of digital devices, and the prohibition of harmful or inappropriate items. By signing, families acknowledge their role in upholding the standards that help all students learn, thrive, and represent the school with pride.
