Message from the Headmaster
Kia Ora
The move back to Alert level 2 reminds us all of the need to remain vigilant, to keep safe, respect others and be kind.
In between all the uncertainty and disruptions caused by Covid 19 restrictions I am pleased by the way the staff and students have continued the online learning.
There is a good feel around the school, boys are enjoying the opportunity to get back to studies and catch up with friends.
I am sure senior students have been made aware of the changes to NCEA and University Entrance due to Covid 19 including the change of the NCEA timetable as set out as below. Our Senior prizegiving has now been moved back to Wednesday 17th November 2021.
With these changes and the uncertainty, we have had to cancel the Year 12 and 13 School Ball for the second year. We anticipate a remodelled Leavers' Dinner at the end of the year for Year 13 students. Details for this will come in due course.
From today I will be away from school for a short period of time due to health reasons. In my absence Mr Graeme Barrett will be Acting Headmaster and school will run as normal.

Basketball Hawke's Bay Under 17s - 10th at Nationals
Denim Tuala Fata (Captain), Kalani Wairau-Pomana, Leikim Rihia, Tama Ropiha, Ihaia Abbott. Coached by Mr Jordan Pomana who is an Assistant Coach of our Senior A Basketball Team at HBHS. Mr Peleti Tuala-Fata (Board of Trustees member) was the Assistant Coach.
Although the team placed 10th they were highly competitive in every game, going down only in the final minutes of each game. The competition was tough with a pool of very strong players.
