Non-commercial organizations

[...] Organizations whose activities are local in scope (e.g., a school or club) can be considered notable if there is substantial verifiable evidence of coverage by reliable independent sources outside the organization's local area.

I was not able to find coverage that satisfies the above for this years 1-13 school. बिनोद थारू (talk) 16:20, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It is a composite school, providing education at both primary and secondary levels.-gadfium 18:29, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I confused ages 1 - 13 and year 1 - 13. I have updated my nomination according to your clarification. बिनोद थारू (talk) 18:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, seems to get regular coverage in news media, e.g. with the change in principal this year.-gadfium 02:42, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, Stuff.nz seems to delight in writing about the school. Since the article was written in 2011, the school has continued to get coverage in a variety of news outlets, as a Google search will show. Sionk (talk) 20:15, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No evidence of anything beyond routine coverage. Article creator may have COI. Three (currently dead) stuff.co.nz links are all to Northern Advocate which makes it local news, not nationally significant. DerbyCountyinNZ ^{(Talk Contribs)} 06:23, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I will note that this is a school, and WP:NSCHOOL (part of the WP:NORG guidance) states that articles on schools are permitted to merely satisfy the WP:GNG, provided that the school is not-for-profit. Coverage from The Northern Advocate, therefore, is perfectly fine for establishing notability here. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 06:19, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Seems to satisfy WP:GNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:37, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A brief search indicates that this school has received significant coverage in local media, beyond the sources cited in the article. The school appears to be notable in accordance with WP:GNG. Marshelec (talk) 06:38, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: repeated coverage by Fairfax New Zealand ("Stuff") suggests notability meets WP:NSCHOOL. Owen× ☎ 23:27, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep notable secondary school. Eluchil404 (talk) 03:15, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
