Financial support

Donations

Like any state school, we rely on the generosity of our parents, caregivers and wider community to fund the activities that simply cannot be provided were we to rely only upon our central government funding. Current school donations are:

Individual student: $275
Two students in the same family: $450
Family maximum: $550

Voluntary infrastructure donation:  $100

Donations can be paid as a lump sum or by instalments made throughout the year. Contact the Resource Centre Manager, Suzanne Broughton at resource.centre@hvhs.school.nz

Other forms of donation:

Donate a book

The library is very keen to receive donations of books. They are happy to purchase a book in a donor’s name and to provide a suitable insert in the front of the book recognising the donation. Contact Anne Stephenson-Piper at anne. stpehensonpiper@hvhs.school.nz

Donate a trip

Several of our elite academic students, cultural performers and sports competitors find themselves struggling to pay for trips associated with their success.  Donations to a confidential fund can be made by contacting the Principal, Ross Sinclair at principal@hvhs.school.nz

Donations of uniform (new or used), stationery

We have a confidential service to families whose circumstances require practical assistance to equip children with the necessities of school life. Donations of items or cash in lieu are welcome. Contact the Associate Principal, Denise Johnson at denise.johnson@hvhs.school.nz

Targeted donations

We have a small but immensely valuable group of individuals who provide donations to foster a special interest that is dear to them. The donations pay for awards or scholarships, or for goods or services. Some of these donations are public and acknowledged, and others are anonymous at the donor’s request. Contact the Principal, Ross Sinclair at principal@hvhs.school.nz
