As an independent, forward-thinking girls’ school we are committed to preparing girls for a lifetime of learning, leadership and engagement in our global community. We believe in girls. At Ruyton Girls’ School we foster the individuality of each girl in a caring and safe environment, nurturing her intellectual, physical, social and emotional qualities that are essential to flourish. Powerful learning is central to the Ruyton culture, building on our strong academic reputation. We focus on advancing the learning of every girl through the engagement of intellectual curiosity, building their knowledge and skills about how to learn, and supporting them to achieve their personal best and be exemplary citizens. We believe in real-world learning beyond the classroom, collaborating with the wider community to promote growth, discovery and sustainability. We empower our girls to lead lives of purpose with courage, character and compassion. Through the development of values and action-focused learning they are inspired to pursue equity and justice for self and others. By embracing diversity and raising their voices, our girls effect positive change and make a difference.

Quigg Partners was established 25 years ago by partners and lawyers from a large New Zealand national firm. The firm started as a team of eight and has now grown to 25. Since its inception, Quigg Partners has provided its clients with specialist legal advice of the highest quality, in a timely and pragmatic manner. We get alongside our clients, ensuring we provide advice that best addresses their objectives and needs while getting to the point immediately. You’re not going to get 10-page legal opinions from us; you’re just going to get solutions. Quigg Partners acts for a wide range of corporate clients, including government organisations, leading New Zealand companies (both public and private) and a large number of trans-Tasman and multinational businesses covering a broad range of industries. We have worked with many of our clients for a number of years and are as loyal to them as they are to us.
