​​​​​​​Nau Mai, Haere Mai

Established at the beginning of the last century, Hastings Boys’ High School provides a stimulating and supportive environment where all students have the opportunity to become confident, connected life-long learners.

Our school has a proud traditional reputation and is recognised as one of the leading boys' schools in New Zealand.  International students have access to highly trained and experienced teachers dedicated to their individual needs.



Where Tradition Meets Innovation

Within our traditional foundation, every student has the opportunity to succeed through the use of the most modern systems, technologies, innovative teaching, and learning programmes.

Our academic achievement can be attributed to outstanding teaching and an understanding of how boys learn. This puts us amongst the best schools in New Zealand.

Every student is seen as unique, with their own specific needs and aspirations. Students are offered IELTS, the New Zealand Qualification system of NCEA Exams and Cambridge International Exams.

"At Hastings Boys' High School, our young men are guided to grow in character, integrity, and respect—values that resonate across the globe. Our international students enrich our community, bringing fresh perspectives to our tradition of excellence."​​​​​​​
