基本資料 | Information
Heretaunga College is a state coeducational secondary school located in Upper Hutt, New Zealand. The school has approximately 775 students from Years 9 to 13 (ages 12 to 18).
The college grounds are a large area with primary access via Ward Street (which runs North-West to South-East) and secondary access via Blockhouse Lane and Fortune Lane. The adjacent Blockhouse is an 1860s relic of the New Zealand land wars (although it never saw action), which is currently managed by the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. The adjacent Fortune Lane was one of the first residential areas in Upper Hutt, but no original buildings remain.
A long-running proposal to merge Heretaunga College with nearby Upper Hutt College and their feeder schools Fergusson Intermediate and Maidstone Intermediate which had led to a moratorium on buildings maintenance collapsed in 2007.[3] The only nearby secondary school not included in the proposal was St. Patrick's College, Silverstream.
