We support each student to experience a positive environment and feel safe and successful at Hamilton Boys’ High School.

The department is located in the new student services building close to the Argyle street entrance. If you come to the main entrance and ask the receptionists they will direct you towards the guidance and counselling offices.

Referrals are welcome from students, parents and staff. Students can fill in a referral form outside of the counselling offices and place these under the door of the offices. Parents and staff can e-mail or phone us on the contacts listed below.

Sometimes students are referred with parental permission to Nga Ringa Awhina and ICAMHS for specialised psychological support. This is done for students with depression, anxiety, panic attacks and other mental health issues.
