Pinehurst School is an independent school at 75 Bush Road in Albany, on Auckland's North Shore. The school describes itself as one of New Zealand's leading independent schools, with a focus on leadership, adventure, creative expression, sport and service. Its performing arts side is part of that, and its recent productions have included a school musical, Mary Poppins Jr.
The school's news page shows the everyday life of the community, with weekly newsletters, a primary choir, college pianists and a cheerleading squad. Families can find key school information through the parent info hub. Our view is that it is a strong choice for families on the North Shore who want a school with a focus on the arts as well as academic work.
