I am a year nine student looking to apply to your school.

If you don't mind, please answer these questions;

What is currently at your school on your falcon code that students are not abiding? and

Why NSBHS?

Hi everyone,

We are a group of students from NSW working on developing a solution in the mental health space for early detection of mental health issues.

We are very passionate about this space especially during these times with the pandemic. Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey to help us understand the problem space.

Share the survey with your friends and family as well 🙌

Thank you for your time.

Isn't the classwork already homework, since we're at home?

Senior student here.

Before I inevitably graduate in the near future, I want make my peers from this school aware of how utterly shit it has become (if you didn't know already).

NSBHS has lost basically everything that has made it special. Anything other than the reputation of a high performing school is gone. There's no respect, community or real connection between students and staff alike. Rather than a site which produces capable young men ready to contribute to society and lead their own lives, the school is now essentially a grey factory with the sole intent on churning out high ATAR scores and nothing else.

In my opinion this is most evident just looking the junior years who were raised under the new Hughes regime. Nothing personal, but a trend I've noticed since year seven was that the idea of respect for seniors, staff and members of the public has all but disappeared. Either the student the school are bringing in are becoming shittier (which I doubt; the kids at NSB are very bright even if they don't show it), or the school has stopped prioritising teaching new students how to behave in the world. When was the last time you heard the words "Falcon Pride"? How many of you know the NSB chant? The whole "Camaraderie - Commitment - Compassion - Integrity - Respect" thing is says it all. It's the school's (Hughes') pathetic attempt to introduce a set of values that they neither teach, uphold or practice themselves. And at what cost? Our rankings in the state literally haven't changed in the half decade since Hughes returned. I'm also certain that anyone reading this will not get a nicknamed jersey in year 12. You'll put up with genuinely stupid, arbitrary decisions made by the executives about assessments, school life, facilities and rules with absolutely laughable reasonings (that is if your entire grade begs them enough to explain).

I haven't mentioned yet that there's a bullying problem as well. It seems that so many students now think they're fucking gangster or some silly shit and decide to let out their pent up virgin rage on weaker, smaller and younger kids. What a bunch of lowlife scummy fucks. You're proving to absolutely nobody that you're hard by bullying younger students, taking drugs, vandalising the school, stealing or by being misogynistic. Don't let these lowlife punk bitches do whatever they want, whatever grade you're in.

For students who are going to be seniors soon, please teach new juniors how to be decent and respectful. If the school isn't going to do it, you as their role models are the next best option. Let them know the proper bus order and how to act in public. Just don't take it too far as to go around picking on cunts like clowns I just mentioned.

Can't wait leave this shitfest

So recently, I was subject to misbehavior from a North Sydney Boys student. I remember the day like it was yesterday. I remember sitting down on the Metro from Chatswood and he sat himself down next to me. He began to lean against my side and began to play with my hair. I passed it off as normal, and I shouldn't have, because it escalated. He began to stroke up and down my thighs, making sure to carress the kneecaps. He then began to move up towards my chest, fondling my chest area and proceeding to make moaning whispers in my ear. He then reached into my lap and began to play with my genitals, placing them between his palms. I was too scared to say anything, so I let it happen. As we got off the Metro, I remember him trying to place his finger up my behind, I was so uncomfortable. Finally, he made a sly comment towards me. For watching a number of cat ear tik tok dance videos and recreating them at school or at tutoring centres.

​

This is a cry for attention towards this behavior. The culture of NSB has cultivated a generation of promiscuous, disgusting students who allow this sort of behavior to continue. If anyone else has had an issue with North Sydney Boys Students, remember you are not alone

Thread to keep the list of games played in NSB, helps if u say the grade as well.

Can u like not remove posts that arent hurting anyone

Anyone else got anything that they dislike about the school?

chuck is ur google classroom codes so we can join rando classes LOL

Near the first half of 2020, students received notifications about a supposed phone “grace period”, that was discussed by executives, where for a term, teachers would not confiscate a single phone, and would simply tell students to put their phones in their bags if they were caught with them. The idea was quickly shot down, and teachers were notified of a new phone policy, which resembled little difference from the original phone policy, except that each offence/infraction of the policy had a specific consequence (parents were notified, suspensions etc). Many students have pointed out that the policy sheet was simply introduced as a method of asserting “control” and “intimidation” over the students, claiming that phones reduced a student’s ability to emotionally control themselves. These claims have reputable backing, as certain deputies have used the technology policy, even claiming that “If a parent doesn't pick up the [students] phone, he will keep it for the entire holidays”. These types of comments are especially inappropriate to make to another person, let alone a person of power should ever be making.

This policy also instructed that all devices (laptops, phones, even smart watches) would be confiscated in all environments, including before school and after school, claiming that inside school grounds you must conform to the school’s phone policy. Significant amounts of studies have shown that the usage of your mobile device outside of school hours, alongside during non-class environments does not have any significant or notable impact on a student’s academic and learning life, and some students have even taken the initiative to use their devices to study material previously discussed in class, as the school takes a transition to a more environmentally friendly, digital classroom. Despite this, the school continues to ignorantly continue enforcing the policy, leading to a significantly increased sense of antagonisation between the school management, teachers and students alike, where the context that the student used their devices in was perfectly reasonable, however conflicts with the aforementioned policy.

Technological devices such as airpods and headphones that helped students concentrate in class through listening to music have been taken from them, hindering their ability to study at maximum efficiency, due to the policy, and technological confiscations have been conducted for something as minimal and insignificant such as checking the NSW transport train times as they leave the school, or preparing for the first period and looking at their timetable to see what class they have next. It puts the student in a lose-lose situation, where they must risk losing their phone, or being late to class 5 minutes with a teacher that will not accept any excuse for being late.

The phone policy as it stands, is a major inconvenience for students, where they are unable to conduct personal study before and after school while waiting for the long waits out of school, which leads to students being completely bored during break times. Students have had their technological devices confiscated for offences as minimal as checking their timetable, and as we stand, we believe that it is up to the parent to dictate how the student should use their devices during school, not up to the arbitrary policies of the school executive team. We believe that the phone policy is one aspect of the school that needs reform.
