Welcome back to Term 2
It will be great to see all our students returning for term 2. Please ensure you have spoken with your son around the school’s uniform standards and the expectations around their hair.
School buses
Napier Boys’ High School students travelling from Bay View, Havelock North, Clive, Taradale and Tamatea are able to catch a Tranzit bus to and from school. Please remind your son that school rules apply when on the bus.
The expectation is students will pay for their trips as they get on the bus – this is a commercial service offered by Tranzit. A single trip is $3.50, 10 trip concession cards $30 and a term pass $265. Further information is available on the school website.
