Hukarere Girls' College is a girls secondary boarding school in the Hawke's Bay Region of New Zealand. It has a strong Māori character and follows the Anglican tradition. The School motto "Kia Ū Ki Te Pai" means "Cleave to that which is good" or "Abhor that which is evil" (Romans 12 verse 9, New Testament of the Bible).[4]
The school opened in July 1875 under the name Hukarere Native School for Girls, then became Hukarere Girls’ School and from 1970 to 1992 it was known as Hukarere Hostel, as during this period of time the students attended Napier Girls' High School. The school was re-established in 1993 and is known as Hukarere Girls’ College. Long located in the city of Napier, it has been at Herepoho, Eskdale, just north of the city, since 2003.
In 2016 the principal said that academic success pass rate for the three National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) levels is 100%.[5]
