Somerville Intermediate School
About the school
Somerville Intermediate is one of the larger intermediate schools in Howick, offering Year 7 and 8 students a stimulating environment of purpose-built studios and rich learning opportunities.
With a strong virtues programme built around Excellence, Respect, Integrity, Perseverance and Attitude, it's a school that takes its role in two pivotal years of a young person's education seriously.
The project
The key challenge was scale, presenting a large, complex school as one cohesive community while making information easy to find for multiple audiences: students, parents, whānau, and prospective families.
The site was structured to segment information clearly without losing the sense of a unified school. An introduction video and dedicated photoshoots bring the learning and energy of the school to life.
The school updates content frequently, making it a vital daily communication tool, while I manage technical maintenance and provide ongoing strategic guidance.

“... Britta has been delightful to work with. She has an enthusiastic and creative personality and this made the development of our school website an exciting and enjoyable project. She worked in a very collaborative manner in order to ensure that the school had a real sense of ownership in the process and finished product. Her focus is on sustainability and for school staff to be able to eventually take over updating the website.
Personally, I have very little technical knowledge about the workings of websites. I had ideas about what I wanted the site to include and the high standard we wanted to achieve, Britta’s high level of expertise and her professional approach was invaluable in order to achieve this.
Britta showed a good deal of personal interest in and commitment to our project and it was reassuring to know that she wanted the very best outcome.
We are very proud of our school’s website and it is generating rapidly increasing numbers of visitors. It has become a valuable part of our communication strategy.
I can recommend Britta as a creative, dedicated person with the skills to help schools achieve a highly successful and effective website.”
