Which is the best high school in Auckland?
I went to Tirimoana Primary in Te Atatu, which is still an excellent school... The classes are smallish compared to other schools as it's relatively still unknown. Depending on where you live, Green Bay Primary is also a very excellent school, despite its laid-back reputation, my sister went there and we found it worked. Kaurilands is also good.
I would stay clear of Kelston, Konini, Arahoe, Henderson, Prospect and Sunnyvale.
Yes that answer is right but i say woodlands park is quite good.
And yes stay clear of kelston konini and all those other schools BUT green bay high school isn't that good, ive read that in a magazine based on the best and worst schools in Auckland, i also recommed Marist it is a cathlic school.
I don't see what's wrong with kelston, Konini and all the other schools. They are normal like all the other schools.
