All students deserve the right to feel safe in their school environment and at Palmerston North Boys’ High School we work hard to provide a positive experience for our young men. As such, bullying and other antisocial behaviour is unacceptable. However, we are aware that it does occur within groups of people and unfortunately can be an issue for students in secondary schools. Our fundamental school rules are very clear that bullying will not be tolerated. When issues are brought to our attention, we do our utmost to deal with them.
However, in order for us to have effective systems in place it is important that we have a good understanding of the nature of any bullying issues at school. To obtain this data we would like you to complete an anonymous survey:

Well done to the young men involved in Surf Lifesaving - a great sporting activity and a great community service.
All school sports, regardless of the level of competition, rely on volunteer officials. A huge thank you to the young men who have refereed, umpired, run score benches or officiated in other capacities during 2025.
At assembly this morning, Noah Belton was presented with his trophies and medal for winning the Single Rise, Single Barrel and ‘High Over All’ competitions in the Lower North Island Clay Target Shooting circuit.
