A traditional school with a contemporary heart

2026 Open Days

Join us for a guided tour of the school and experience our community firsthand. Meet the friendly faces that make SBHS special as our student guides show you around, sharing insights and answering your questions along the way. Tours run for approximately 30 - 40 minutes, and you’ll also have the opportunity to speak with staff from key departments who can provide further information.

2026 School Tours by Appointments

If you’re unable to attend our Open Day, we invite you to book a school tour and experience SBHS in action during a normal school day. These tours offer a valuable opportunity to see classrooms, facilities, daily routines, and our school community in a more personalised setting.

Tours run from Tuesday 4 August – Friday 14 August, with bookings opening from 21 July 2026. As places are limited, we encourage you to book early to secure a day that suits you.

Each tour is led by a combination of Senior Prefects and a Junior School Teacher, who will guide you around the school, share their experiences, and answer your questions along the way. 

To book a tour, please phone 03 211 300 Ext. 801.
