Welcome to Henderson High School

Henderson High School is at the heart of our city.  We are creating a progressive learning environment to help all our students graduate as mature, confident young people who have the know-how and drive to achieve success in their chosen field.

Henderson High offers its students:  
  • High expectations of academic achievement, personal appearance and student behaviour
  • An excellent range of academic and 'extra curricular' options
  • An emphasis throughout the school on respect, loyalty and hardwork
  • An induction programme and strong support for all new students. This is particularly important to ensure the transition from intermediate to secondary school is a happy experience
  • Students who understand the importance of being part of their community and take pride in helping others around them
 Henderson High School offers a full range of mainstream core education alongside a variety of non-traditional subjects on the Curriculum Framework. While the first priority is to ensure all students achieve their highest academic potential, we also have a strong focus on extra-curricular activities that bring passion to a teenager's life: sport, music, social and other fun learning options.
