Horowhenua College is a state co-educational secondary school located in Levin, New Zealand. The school has 609 students from Years 9 to 13 (ages 12 to 18) as of February 2017. It was opened in 1940, replacing the secondary school department of Levin School. It is the oldest college in the Horowhenua area.

Horowhenua College has its origins in Levin School, a primary school established in 1890. It was the first school in the Levin area. Levin School incorporated a high school from 1905 until 1939, when it returned to primary only ahead of the opening of Horowhenua College.
