John Paul II High School, Greymouth

John Paul II High School, Greymouth is an integrated Catholic, co-educational Year 9 to Year 13 (Form 3–7) secondary school located in Greymouth, New Zealand.

The college is proud of its Catholic, Marist and Mercy heritage, encourages student academic and intellectual success holistically — physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally, and promotes a strong social conscience. The school, which has a strong Catholic focus, is staffed by people who are lay and not members of any religious order.

The school was founded in 1980 from the amalgamation of two schools, St Mary's High School, operated by the Sisters of Mercy (who arrived in Greymouth in 1882) and Marist Brothers Boys' School (latterly, the Marist Brothers High School) operated by the Marist Brothers (founded in 1892). John Paul II High School was integrated into the State education system by the agreement of the proprietor of the school the (Catholic Bishop of Christchurch) and the Minister of Education in 1983.[citation needed]

This is a list of notable former students of John Paul II High School, Greymouth and its antecedent schools, St Mary's High School, Greymouth and Marist Brothers High School, Greymouth.
