At Napier Girls' High School, we believe in the power of inspiration from the past, learning, contributing, and empowering young women for today and tomorrow. Our students consistently achieve above the national average in national qualifications, which is a testament to our personalized learning and innovative approach to teaching and learning.

We take pride in our outstanding achievements in sports and cultural areas, as we believe that a well-rounded education involves nurturing talents beyond the classroom. Our values and traditions create a safe and inclusive learning environment where students gain a sense of belonging. The excellent relationships between our staff and students foster a supportive atmosphere, and our dedicated teachers work tirelessly to develop the full potential of each student.

We have a range of traditions and systems in place to ensure the well-being and guidance of our students. Our sound pastoral and career systems ensure that each student is known and given appropriate individual support throughout their years at Napier Girls' High School. Additionally, our on-site school Hostel, Hewett House, offers quality residential accommodation for 170 students, providing a supportive and caring living and learning environment.

Our aim is for each girl to develop into an intelligent, confident, and caring young woman who is well-prepared to take on the many varied and exciting challenges of their future.
