Spartans

The teachers are stern when need be and are friendly when they can. Of course here are always very strict teachers but they're all nice too. The outdoors is something they would everyone to experience as seen in years 10 camp when, we climbed the highest point in Canterbury. The cultural side is varied so there is always something to participate in culturally. Sports is a big thing that the school pushes but it's only if you want to do it.

Inside the school

Left this school last year. It was ok on the outside but then when you go there you see all this stuff that parents and other keen student wouldn't see until they have joined. The amount of people smoking and vaping in this school is insane. I would say around 40 to 50 percent of the school is currently or has vaped/smoked in the school before. Alot of the people there are actually quite nice and but some can be quite rude and intimidating to the younger yr 9s

Good school.

Its good. The building is super nice. Teachers are good. Only issue is bikes get stolen by local crackheads and the company spotless in charge of cameras dont put cameras on the bike sheds. Dumb. And also being next to avonside. Its just teen baby factory over there.

Being next to avonside sucks

Canteen sucks now that they’ve moved in with avonside. Being next to avonside is just horrible but other than that a good school.

Shirley Boys is the Best School

The teachers are top quality. Great at teaching, easy to talk to and very fun to be near.
