Christchurch Boys’ High School’s Student Services team supports student wellbeing and daily needs. They handle absences, first aid, lost property, and attendance queries. The Weekly Note keeps students informed, while the Mobile Phone Policy helps maintain focus on learning.
Counselling services and the Health Hub, including a free and confidential Public Health Nursing Service, ensure students' mental and physical wellbeing. From guidance to health services, Student Services is here to assist.
If your son is going to be absent, please use the Parent Portal App or email absences@cbhs.nz or ring Student Services on 348 5003 (school’s main line) then dial option 1 and leave a message
COVID – If you test positive, it is no longer mandatory to isolate or wear a face mask. Please return to school only when well enough. If requested you may need to wear a face mask, to respect those at higher health risk.
Absentees, lateness, signing out, first aid, lost property (delivery to school of your son’s lunch, sports gear, forgotten items of clothing etc.) are all handled by the Student Services Administrator
For planned leave over 3 days (during term time) please go to the parent portal and fill in the e-form
