Hamilton Secondary School Open Days
We believe that Hamilton is well served in its state secondary schools. All offer a high standard of education; each has its own special characteristics.
We invite you to visit us and make your choice an informed one. Information, prospectuses and applications for enrolment will be available at all
the schools on Open Days, and will be supplied to all Hamilton Intermediate and contributing Primary Schools.
To enable interested parents and students to meet staff, view facilities, and discuss matters of interest Open Days are scheduled as detailed.
If you are unable to attend a meeting and wish to see the school, please contact the Principal. All schools are happy to meet such requests.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
