Help us upgrade School House, our boarding facility, so it’s an even better place for our students to live, relax, and thrive.
School House has been a big part of Otago Boys’ High School life since 1974.
For the last 50 years it has been home to generations of students – mostly from the Otago and Southland regions. But after decades of use, the building is showing its age and needs some serious care in order for it to remain fit for purpose for generations to come.
The OBHS Board has agreed it is time to give School House the upgrade it needs, with a staged redevelopment commencing late 2025…
The redevelopment will include:
- Refurbishment of the bathrooms in the two junior dormitories - Campbell and Hawthorn.
- Refurbishment of Nicholson's dormitory rooms, bathroom, lounge and kitchenette
- New office space for management, and infirmary room
- Upgrade to the Melrose Street entrance
- A new foyer, reception and common room/prep space
- Refurbishment of the dining room
The Foundation is looking forward to working with the school to bring this vision to life. We would love hear from individuals and organisations who would like to be part of this journey.
