2017 has been a very good year for the school.

At the Junior Prize-giving ceremony this morning I had the absolute pleasure and indeed privilege to honour one of our most distinguished Old Boys'. 

The Foundation remains in a stable position and an active supporter of the school.

Andy Larson is chalking up last term of his 41-year teaching career, and all he can think about is how challenging it will be to fill his retirement days.

Senior prize giving was held on Thursday 2 November at the Regent Theatre. It was a special occasion to celebrate the students success throughout the year. 

One head boy got another head boy out, although the older one was hardly bragging about it.

Under the watchful eye of Old Boy Thomas Stevens, OBHS students have been sitting Speech NZ’s Public Speaking and Communication syllabi in the Shand at lunchtimes and after school for the past three years.

It is my pleasure to announce the appointment of Mr Andrew Turner, our Deputy Rector to the position of Principal at Gisborne Boys' High School. He will begin in the New Year.

Josh Mackie has had a taster of AFL's highest level and now he is a step closer to getting there.

Joe Cook-Green could not believe it when he was named in the Tall Blacks latest squad — although everyone else could.

Former Head Boy and Olympic medalist, Hamish Bond, was the guest at Friday morning's Blues assembly.

We would like to acknowledge the recent passing of the following Old Boys' of the school. We will remember them. 

This book is available for purchase from the school office for $50.

Now is the time to think about this great offer. With fuel prices high, why not sign up for a fuel card that offers you discount and supports OBHS.
