About KingsGate School

KingsGate School is a State-Integrated Christian Area School serving students from Years 0–13, located in New Zealand. As a state-integrated school, its teaching and learning programme is funded by the New Zealand Government, but its land and buildings are owned by the New Zealand Christian Proprietors Trust (NZCPT) rather than the Crown.

The school's Christian Special Character shapes its curriculum, pastoral care, and community life. It delivers the New Zealand Curriculum alongside a Christian perspective grounded in a biblical worldview. Families enrolling at KingsGate are required to pay Attendance Dues of $2,054 per student per year, a compulsory charge approved by the Minister of Education that contributes to property ownership and maintenance costs.

As an area school, KingsGate provides continuous schooling from early primary through to Year 13 within a single community. The school's five stated core values are Strength, Empathy, Respect, Vision, and Endurance. Its educational framework also draws on seven symbolic practices, each represented by a native New Zealand tree, covering areas such as prayer, community, character formation, scripture, theological thinking, curriculum, and service.
