At Golden Bay High School students prepare for the future by learning skills and knowledge, and developing the personal resources that are needed to live satisfying, balanced and responsible lives.
We cater for all students, whatever their needs. Part of our philosophy is to take into account the interests and abilities of each student. We devise individual programmes to support maximum learning where necessary. Please contact us if you need any further assistance - we would love to hear from you. Ake Ake Kia Kaha.

Tēnā koutou katoa And just like that.. another year has gone! Time flies when one is having fun! This year is suddenly over. There have been many highlights. The enormous number of opportunities our students have is such a strength. For example over 170 different trips have been approved, and that doesn’t include the GBHS Netball club trips to Nelson each Saturday in winter. Thank you to all of our staff, BoT members, parents, whānau volunteers and community for the amazing support. It is appreciated. Cherie Chamberlain recognised with national award We are very proud that Cherie is the recipient of a rare national award for Exceptional Service to School Sport from the New Zealand Secondary Sports Council. Cherie coached her first netball team 41 years ago, whilst she was a student at GBHS, and has been coaching and supporting sport ever since. Staffing We have fare welled Judi File, Roger File, Becky Rouse, Jane Hart and Mary Demlyn who are moving out of the Bay. Karen Hunt will be moving back to Mapua, after filling in for Glenda Allinson. Cherie Chamberlain is stepping down from her sports coordinator role. A huge thank you to all of these staff for their service to GBHS. Starting next year will be: Dominic Hammond – Vocational Education Specialist Nicole Manson – Kāhui Ako Learning Support Coordinator. Jeanine Taylor - working three days a week as SENCO. High Vis Backpack covers – free These are provided by TDC. Please let the office know if your student would like one. Best wishes for the festive season I hope that all in our community have an enjoyable and safe festive season. We look forward to working together again next year. Ake ake kia kaha Ngā mihi Linda |
