Supporting our children's learning & faith journey
A warm welcome to our school
St Ignatius Catholic School, located in the tranquil seaside suburb of St Heliers, close to Auckland’s CBD, is a Decile 10 co-ed Integrated Primary School.
We enjoy the support of parents and caregivers who value ‘OUR WAY’ – our traditions, our holistic delivery of curriculum and our community/family atmosphere. We value those who have high expectations for their children’s learning outcomes and are actively supportive of and interested in the children’s learning journeys.

A rich history
The original two roomed school was opened in 1927 by the Josephite sisters, the order founded by Australia’s first canonised saint, St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. In November 2014, the two storey St Mary MacKillop block comprising flexible learning spaces was opened.
This welcome addition provides further accommodation in which our community of active, engaged learners can develop the skills, attitudes and knowledge required now and for the future.
SchoolTV
It can sometimes feel challenging for parents to raise happy, healthy and resilient children and teens. What can help our families and schools is up-to-date resources aimed at providing information on key topics that relate to parenting and the well-being of our children.
SchoolTV has partnered with St Ignatius Catholic School to deliver ongoing support to parent communities, teachers and school and pastoral support staff. The SchoolTV platform is integral as part of a whole school approach to student wellbeing. It is now available to our parents and families. Each topic or edition addresses key issues using brief interviews with expert specialists, fact sheets, parent quizzes, recommended apps, books and much more.
SchoolTV streamlines and brings together information from many reputable sources and provides a very reliable and accessible resource, saving parents time and confusion searching online across multiple sites.
