A place where students can be themselves and express who they want to be

Mt Hobson Academy Online School provides quality teaching and learning, positive learning focused relationships, an engaging Project Based Curriculum for Years 1-10 and follows the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) pathway for Years 11-13. It is an excellent option for parents and students who want the certainty of quality education, consistency of uninterrupted classes and have high expectations on the teaching and learning for their children and young adults. Although privately run, the school reflects the 8 Essential Learning Areas as stated in the NZ curriculum - overlaid by clear Christian philosophy and values.

Parents have an integral part in school life and are kept informed of their child’s progress. The child’s interest areas are affirmed and they have the opportunity to significantly develop the capacity to direct their own learning.  Parents are invited to take an interest in all aspects of their child's schooling. Please discuss any special areas of interest with the staff.

Our aim is to develop the individual talents of every student and to teach them to relate the experience to, and learn through, the everyday world. Through expert teaching and guidance, students develop the ability to complete assessments effectively and to the best of their ability. Good behaviour, social skills and manners are taught and expected at all times. We take full advantage of the excellent learning resources in the community.
