The Gardens school is a school located in manurewa in central South Auckland. Our school likes to enter in a lot of tournaments so our school is a very sporty school.
Our school uniform is a unique set of colours for junior boys. They wear light brown shorts and a red shirt with our school logo. For girls they wear a red green skirt and a red shirt the same as the boys. The intermediate school uniform is black short black skirt and a red shirt, in the winter you can wear the black pants and our black jumpers.
When you come to this school you will need to know how our school works because many schools work differently. Our school morning tea is at 10:35am and ends at 11:05am and our lunch is at 12:35pm and ends at 1:25pm. In our school we don’t allow chewing gum like some other schools do, our school is fairly new so we like to keep it clean for new students that come and join us.
Our school has been around for a long time but we have had three different school buildings. Our old building was made up of 15 little classrooms. Our school has a few subjects such as reading, writing, steam which stands for tech engineering art maths, we have Spanish history and cooking. When you come to our school you’re given a wings badge. Wings stands for to wonder to innovate to nurture to grow to succeed.
