Taylor

Taylor House was established in 2006 and it is home to the Day Girls of King’s College. Originally part of Middlemore Lodge, the differing needs of day and boarding girls meant that a new facility was required. Taylor House is located at the start to the King’s drive in between Selwyn and Middlemore. The statue in the garden (Mana Wahine) was a present at the opening from former Headmaster, John, and his wife, Sarah Taylor – after whom this House is named. The Taylor House motto “Potens Pollensque” means capable and strong.

One of the very special features of King’s College is its House system. The creation of Taylor House means that we are continuing to provide the very best pastoral care structures and programmes for girls at the College and we aim to continually improve the impressive opportunities for girls here. There is no doubt that the initial signs associated with this move have been extremely positive.
 
In 2010, there are 91 Day Girls in Taylor House.
