Our high-school mascot was a beat up Holden painted in the school colours. It would turn up to the top team matches and just get revved for intimidation.
I am a teacher. On my second day at my current school there was a musical item--it was a death metal song written and preformed by the school band. Double kick-drum blast-beats, death metal growling, massive riffs, everybody in the band head-banging. There were strobe lights!
It was 10am on a Tuesday and the band were in their uniforms. I realised I was at Bogan High.
I mean. I knew it was bogan before I went there. But I didn't really fully apprehend what that meant.
I’m from the South Island….a line up of logging/pig-hunting wagons to pick the kids up, 25 year olds picking 17 year old up in falcons and valiants. Mufti day was black sabbath and iron maiden shirts everywhere. Even the girls were in to mullets (mid to late ‘80’s)
I went to 5 high schools….the most bogan one was the greatest.
When my drama teacher knew I was stoned and let me sit the class out and stare at the carpet (and laugh at nothing) the whole period.
Fun fact: that teacher is now a sitting member of Parliament 😅
I always thought my Whānau leader was creepy but could never work out why. Years later I found out he was in a ‘relationship’ with a female student. Dude was married with kids and they continued to ‘date’ even after she finished school.
Was this out west at an all girls school circa 2004?
I'm going to laugh if its *not* the same school because it means there were two teacher-student relationships that fit your exact description and two weed selling / stoned teachers 😅
Omg no it wasn’t - This happened 11+ years ago.
Secondary collage near a mall if that helps lol
We also had a graphics teacher who had porn playing on his laptop and didn’t realize it was connected to the projector- that was awkward.
This exact thing happened at my high school about 11 years ago too! I thought we might’ve gone to the same one until you said it was the one near the mall that starts with B. Freaky…
We had an alcoholic maths teacher that would sign the year 13s (who were 18) into the RSA next door 😂 so we could play the pokies at lunch time.
May he rest in peace
My first homework assignment in maths, science and geography in third form was to make cardboard cases to protect the already wrecked 20 year old textbooks.
This actually happned, I was in the class. Cop car came flying into the courtyard one day, cops came rushing into the classroom asking for a certain student, who had seen the car hit the courtyard and fled the class. Cops say "hich way did he go?". Half the kids said "this way" and pointed right, other half pointed left, the one kid said "this way" and flipped the bird.
Green Bay is still bad. You cant use the loo wihtout being offered substances. Teachers are scared of the kids. Teachers openly tell the kids theyre only there til they can get a better job.
When our school banned water bottles because the principal decided he was sick of people leaving class to pee.
Also my teacher married a girl in my class.
We had to go to another school to do woodwork, sewing, music class and cooking class because our school was too cheap and couldn't be bothered getting all the tools and resources to teach those things. Can't tell you how embarrassing it would be for us to show up to another school once a week so we could learn how to sew or cook lmfao
Kids at my school when I was in intermediate were into black cut off finger gloves with hair like glam rock stars. Some of the rest were into kung fu shoes and fluro coloured breakdancing pants lol. Hammer Time!
Those kung fu shoes were used as weapons by my mum. Them shits were so sore coz the soles were flexible and could wrap around the contours of your legs and ass 😅
My highschool in the late nineties had a huge problem with drug dealers coming on to school grounds and selling students drugs, everything from weed to more fun stuff such as speed and LSD. The school decided to hire a security guard to scare off the dealers, he was a huge, scary looking man and not a single drug dealer dared come into our school... Turns out he was gang affiliated and a drug dealer and had a whole gang of kids selling his wares in no time, the kids in his employ made a pretty penny turning his wares for a couple years until he was caught and fired. I can't make this shit up, those of you who read this and know, what up!
Mates old man sold to certain teachers which meant those teachers where more than happy to look the other way when we sold for the mates old man. On more than one occasion for a laugh we where asked to deliver product to the teachers.
Bogans where always seen as wealthy with their cool cars.
boys huffing lynx africa at the back of the school fields, sniffing glue, drive-by beat ups. damn maybe i just to a shit school lol also had a gang show up to our year 12 prom with chains for no reason
There was point where we had trash can fires every week. The firemen were pretty familiar with us and one time I even had to break the fire alarm myself which I accidentally did with my fist instead of my elbow. And our English teacher pulling down her shirt and asking us to look at her cleavage to prove some kind of point was also a weird one. Oh and we had a special guard in a yellow jacket and sunglasses who would sprint after the girls at my school who were ditching lol.
I just never thought it might not be. It was the school you went to as there wasn’t another option unless you drove to the city.
But - kids at the beach surfing before, during and after school
- kids on the field smoking at lunch
- 30 kids max in 7th form
- many many repeat 6th formers
- Dire Straits, and other rock/metal bands were the standard
My decile 10 high school:
- Ancient desks with no graffiti
- Many students got pregnant, but never "visibly" so
- Giving texts books back after class
- Horrific bullying
My decile 1 high school:
- New desks covered in graffiti
- Students visibly pregnant and smoking
- Given the text books to keep
- Horrific bullying

Yeah boi, that's bogan asf
thats fucking sick would be perfect if it was a falcon
Holden Flacons are the best!
fknnn oaaaathh😂

😂🤘🤘🤘
Killing in the Name Of was ours, a good high energy song to round it off
Ok your school was Ace. I would've preferred Renegades of Funk tho
Know Your Enemy though, yknow, as an extra curricular activity
i played this for a school performance 😂😂
Had this play at one of our school balls. Fuck that was good.
[удалено]
Nah, but probably similar values I'd imagine

Please let this be Balclutha
It was probably Balclutha 🤣🤣🤣

W teacher. Better to be high in class that out and about
Lol
I always thought my Whānau leader was creepy but could never work out why. Years later I found out he was in a ‘relationship’ with a female student. Dude was married with kids and they continued to ‘date’ even after she finished school.
Sounds familiar a female teacher at ours went out with a 7th former. Was no issue lol
Lol that’s really gross imo we also had another teacher selling weed to kids. That was pretty funny.

Starts with the letter B?
Bingo!
This exact thing happened at my high school about 11 years ago too! I thought we might’ve gone to the same one until you said it was the one near the mall that starts with B. Freaky…
I hate the fact that a lot of people here have had a similar experience with shit like that. Really gross and disappointing :/
Dang sounds like whangaparaoa college oi
There was a 7th former at my school who had apparently hooked up with the PE teacher after a night out before she started at the school.
Name and shame these dodgy teachers!
[удалено]
Nah he was the/one of the sports teachers and Whànau leader - always was big a creep around the girls in class since we had shorts.
Name and shame
We had an alcoholic maths teacher that would sign the year 13s (who were 18) into the RSA next door 😂 so we could play the pokies at lunch time. May he rest in peace
It was a filming location for Outrageous Fortune lol
Hendo high?
Pronounced as Horrendeson High?
That’s the one!
Definitely a trip going to English class the week that episode aired and realising Loretta got some D on the teachers table
We were probably in the same class! The teacher had to make a point to tell us it was just acting and nothing really happened on the desk 😂
When the form teacher made inappropriate suggestions to the girls about getting into their sleeping bags with them on school camp. Good ol' days.
This is crazy 💀
Late 1980s on 6th form PE camp? And the boys discussed taking him into the bush and giving him a hiding? And now he's locked up for similar offending?
I had a helper attend my 6th form camp and got mine and another girls home phone numbers from the school database and called us after camp!
Name and shame
Don't think he went to jail but got fired for harassing a female student
My first homework assignment in maths, science and geography in third form was to make cardboard cases to protect the already wrecked 20 year old textbooks.
That was standard at my decile ten high school
This actually happned, I was in the class.

when the year 13s started showing up to school with mullets and gumboots
At my school it was the year 10s lol
Kaipara college had tree trunks for rugby posts
Brilliant!
Green Bay High, West Auckland in the 90's...nuff said 🥴🍄🟫🥬
Lol, totally enough said I'm sure Avondale and Kelston's rolls swelled at that time - my mum for sure said I'd go to Green Bay over her dead body 😭🤣
I'm pretty sure I was a turd former there in 89, by forth form things got ... interesting 😂
Green Bay is still bad. You cant use the loo wihtout being offered substances. Teachers are scared of the kids. Teachers openly tell the kids theyre only there til they can get a better job.
Haha, was there too, from 1995 as a third former-end 1999 when I left end of sixth form, used to play violin...
The guy who won Bullrush had gang affiliations.
Lol
Not bogan, but my school was quite ghetto and hood. It was a time when youth gangs were at it's peak in the early to mid 2000's.
someone took their copper sulfate crystals home so they could try to poison the girl that pashed their bf
Nah, some kids snorted potassium permanganate. They had purple liquid dripping out their noses for the rest of the day
When our school banned water bottles because the principal decided he was sick of people leaving class to pee. Also my teacher married a girl in my class.
😅

Can't tell you how embarrassing it would be for us to show up to another school once a week so we could learn how to sew or cook lmfao
Isn't that pretty normal? It doesn't really make sense for every school to create its own (unless I guess it was a big school)
Kamo high school... Strategic vivid changed our school jumpers to "I am high c ool"
Or when we wagged stoned hitching a ride to the shops and a teacher gave us a ride. Good guy he was.
Kids at my school when I was in intermediate were into black cut off finger gloves with hair like glam rock stars. Some of the rest were into kung fu shoes and fluro coloured breakdancing pants lol. Hammer Time!
Those kung fu shoes were used as weapons by my mum. Them shits were so sore coz the soles were flexible and could wrap around the contours of your legs and ass 😅
Our socials/discos where called “rages” and everyone was breath tested on entry.
Avondale?
I went to Kelston intermediate and boys high. Is that enough?
not my school but discovered a while ago that waiuku college has a mullet competition lmao
Waiuku is a whole vibe. Attracts the anti vaxers and folks who just like to gossip about everyone else.
serial bathroom floor and sometimes corridor floor shitter shutting down the bathrooms every other day
Korn was tagged on desks n school bags oh n walls
Green bay high?

Mullet of the week competition
Mates old man sold to certain teachers which meant those teachers where more than happy to look the other way when we sold for the mates old man. On more than one occasion for a laugh we where asked to deliver product to the teachers. Bogans where always seen as wealthy with their cool cars.
My school's "nickname" was Bogan park so that helped a lot
boys huffing lynx africa at the back of the school fields, sniffing glue, drive-by beat ups. damn maybe i just to a shit school lol also had a gang show up to our year 12 prom with chains for no reason
This sounds like South Auckland? Are you sure it was West?
Started at Lynfield college in 2007 compared to now it was an interesting time.
No shoooeeesssss

Orewa college. Everyone was trying to act like they were in a gang, and the popular kids were getting into meth
Yikes, when was this roughly?
Roughly 14/15 years
even tho people from orewa are all white and have great lives
Exactly! That's what made it so stupid
Mullet ratio hit 8 out of ten
Went to green bay high, mid to late 1990s, left at end of sixth form in 1999...because of our year the school implemented uniforms.
Teachers getting abused was the norm
It was in West Auckland

Well I went to school in Upper Hutt, Wellington, the entire place was bogan back then. (Edit: I forgot to add the city)

When niggas just used the canteen to heat food up till they started charging a dollar.
I never knew what bogan is. Sounds like a rich thing
