McAuley High School is a Catholic girls' secondary school in Ōtāhuhu, New Zealand. The school was founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1962[3] and continues to be run by the order.
Students at the school achieve highly compared to the national average and to students at schools with a similar decile rating. Attendance figures are very high compared to most low decile schools.[4] Regular attendance at school is a constant message that is backed up by the local catholic church which stands at over 90%.[5]
