Streets and schools were named after Edmund Hillary around New Zealand. Their names were Hillary collage in Otara, Edmund Hillary Primary School in Papakura.

A 2.3-metre bronze statue of Sir Edmund was outside the Hermitage hotel at Mount Cook Village, New Zealand, in 2003. In 1945, he was sent to Fiji and the Solomon Islands where he was badly burnt in a boat inciden.
