Campus Information

St Helens

The St Helens Campus is located in spacious, park-like grounds in Mt Albert, Auckland, and is adjacent to the popular Chamberlain Park Golf Course. The campus bears the name paying homage to the property’s previous incarnation as St Helen’s Hospital. The St Helen's Hospital was originally founded and named in 1968 by New Zealand Prime Minister, Rt Hon Richard J Seddon who was born in the English town of St Helen's. Travelling to and from the campus is easy as it is located close to Auckland’s North Western motorway and the Baldwin Avenue train station, and bus services travelling along nearby New North and Great North Roads are frequent.

Asquith

The AIS Asquith Campus is located just over five minutes’ walk from the St Helens Campus.
