At Christchurch Boys’ High School, we are guided by a steadfast commitment to excellence, respect, and integrity. These values shape our vision to develop fine young men who are empathetic, inclusive, and ready to make meaningful contributions to society.
We foster a supportive environment where students thrive academically, culturally, and athletically, preparing them to meet the challenges of a dynamic world with confidence and moral strength.
At the heart of Christchurch Boys’ High School are the core values of commitment, bravery, honour, and service. These principles shape the journey of every student, fostering moral courage, academic excellence, and a dedication to the greater good.
From the symbolic act of walking under the carved image of Ngāi Tahu chief Tautahi to becoming active members of the wider community, our students embody a legacy of respect and resilience.
Guided by the motto Altiora Peto ("I seek higher things"), we aim to nurture fine young men equipped with the tools to excel academically and ethically. With a legacy spanning over 130 years, we strive to provide a holistic education enriched by cultural, sporting, and community experiences.
Our vision is a future where each student achieves success while upholding values that connect them to the past, present, and future of Aotearoa New Zealand.
