MEET YOUR Principal Jayne-Ann Young - Queen Margaret College

Queen Margaret College (QMC) offers contemporary learning in the heart of Wellington. We are the only girl’s school in Wellington that offers International Baccalaureate for Years 1 to 13. We also have a boarding facility and coeducational preschool. Principal Jayne-Ann Young joined QMC in 2017 as an innovator in educational delivery. She is passionate about creating opportunities for young women, and ensuring they have the confidence and resilience to pursue, and realise, their potential. “We nurture growth within a culture of unity and sisterhood, and we believe in the importance of girls’ education. With our learners at the heart of every decision, we cultivate a holistic environment to encourage questioning, collaboration, and participation. All students should be adventurous in how they learn and take their place in the world with curiosity and courage. Our college is small enough to ensure every student is valued as an individual, but large enough to offer an extensive range of subjects, alongside sporting and cultural activities”. Register for one of our Tuesday Open Mornings for a guided tour, and to have your questions answered over morning tea.

Kent Favel - Principal, St Mark’s School

Kent believes that one of the main attractions of St Mark’s is its strong sense of community. “St Mark’s is a place with a real family feel,” he says. “We provide a warm, inclusive environment where children feel a strong sense of belonging - from day one”.

Located at the Basin Reserve, St Mark’s is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School where children receive a wellrounded education with a global outlook.

St Mark’s has been a co-educational school for over 100 years, and this is something which Kent proudly believes in. “Coeducational schools reflect the diversity of our society. This is boys and girls, learning, playing and working together, just like the world we live in”.

St Mark’s offers a seamless education from Preschool through to Year 8 and we welcome your child at any stage of their schooling journey. Limited spaces are still available for 2023 and now enrolling for 2024.

Explore St Mark’s Open Day on Friday 26 May and Saturday 27 May - please register through the school website.
