Mount Roskill Grammar School

"I was lucky enough to have a tour of Mount Roskill Grammar school with the international director. The school has had a lot of referbishment and building done, including the library and S block. Well done to the property manager and team"

"It's a good school a lot of new students and teachers also a new learning hub"

"I met SLT from the school and was really impressed. Mr Watson and his team are highly experienced and visionary educators who are dedicated to education."

"I am rating 5 stars because the food was amazing. If you ever go to Mt Roskill Grammar School, ask for the panini with curry and italian foe grais spaghetti lai mien with mcdonalds sweet and sour sauce. In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last Lunch, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Mt Roskill Grammar School's famous motto, "To the Heights" But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great tuck-shop chef; but a great tuck-shop chef can come from anywhere. It is difficult to imagine more humble origins than those of the genius now cooking at Mt Roskill Tuck-Shop, who is, in this critic's opinion, nothing less than the finest chef in New Zealand. I will be returning to Mt Roskill Tuck-shop soon, hungry for more."

"The community education hosted by the mt roskill grammar school is great. Plenty of subjects are on offer for a reasonable fee. Parking also amply available, though navigating the compound is very challenging and can easily get lost."
