Hamilton Boys' High School


Welcome to the September 2022 edition of the High Achiever.  We have managed to pack a lot into a month that has just flown by, so we hope you enjoy all of our success stories and celebrations. Have a safe and relaxing holiday with your whānau, and we look forward to seeing you all back here, refreshed and ready to go as we hit Term 4.
