    Pretty good so far.

    GBHS has improved over the years. I guess they took a lot of the crictism to heart and they're starting to do more for the cultural aspect of the school. More cultural clubs, programs, and just more I guess. I personally love Drama and wish they would bring back a drama club. They do have a theatre sports club but I wish they more onstage acting.

    Horrible school!!!

    This is such a bad school!! The system is very old and out dated. Every day I wake up knowing that I have to go to gisborne boys high my depression just gets worse.all they care about is rugby.they never give us a break if we do something fun it's straight back to class after words. There are no treacher only days,no mufti days and most the teachers are just toxic.send your son to anywhere but there

    Great

    As a young tranny attending Gisborne Boys’ High School for the first time I was worried about being exposed to bullying and getting the bash. This all changed when I met a nice big Tongan boy and he introduced me to the boyz as the “palangi”. I thrived in school events as I felt one with the school motto “courage knows no defeat!” On the negative side I have heard that the teachers meet to vape in the toilets which fulfils my desire to be a party animal! The classic gang symbols written on the t...

    Go to Lytton, it’s terrible but not as bad.

    I’m in my last year. I haven’t had a single day where I’ve come home and not considered killing myself so I didn’t have to wake up and go back to Gisborne boys high school. Do not send your son to this school.
