James Hargest College is a large school of about 1800 students, in Invercargill, New Zealand. The majority of students are Pākehā, but there are some Māori and Asians. The school caters for students from year 7-13. The school is divided into two campuses, known as James Hargest Junior Campus (Year 7-8) and James Hargest Senior Campus (Year 9-13). The campuses are at opposite ends of Layard Street and are separated by about a 15 minute walk. James Hargest College is named after Brigadier-General James Hargest. James Hargest Junior Campus was formerly known as Rosedale Intermediate School until it became part of the former James Hargest High School to make James Hargest College as part of the Ministry of Education review of schools in 2004. Other intermediate schools in the city merged with the newly formed James Hargest Junior Campus, increasing the school's roll and stretching resources. Because of this, a new technology block has been built, and several new classrooms have been built since the merge. There are 20 homeroom classrooms. The subjects in the New Technology Block include Science, Art, Woodwork, Foods & Textiles technology, and an ICT & Media Suite.
