Southland Girls' High School


Southland Girls' High School is a girls' secondary school in Invercargill, New Zealand, established in 1879.
It consists of two main school blocks, one the former Tweedsmuir Junior High School. Students of all ages are mixed around the classrooms to involve all students thoroughly in school life, and one uniform is worn by all year levels. Two yearly musical dramas are produced in conjunction with Southland Boys' High School.
The 2005 NZQA report commended the school and staff for the very good practices and consistently high standards.
A new school gymnasium was officially opened in 2007 by Sport and Recreation Minister Trevor Mallard. The same year student teams won two national titles in synchronised swimming, with pupil Caitlin Anderson qualifying to represent New Zealand internationally.
Enwood House is the Southland Girls' High School hostel for boarders between years 7 and 13. Enwood House provides 24 hour care for boarders with night staff on duty at all times. Girls can stay Monday to Friday or full-time, and short term stays are available. The hostel is available for hire outside school terms. Visitors are required to check in at the office.
