About NZ Training Centre

New Zealand Training Centre (NZTC) was established in 1989 in Hamilton, initially to support churches in New Zealand through conferences, short-term training, and a correspondence course. In 1993, it launched a Full-time Training programme, registered with the New Zealand government as the Diploma of Biblical Studies.

NZTC describes its mission as training people in biblical life, truth, and service. Its statement of faith is grounded in Trinitarian Christian theology, holding the Bible as the sole divine revelation.

Alongside its training function, NZTC operates a bookshop and printing operation. It is an authorised reproducer and distributor of Holy Word for Morning Revival publications by Living Stream Ministry, and of the Journey Through the Bible series published by the Southern California Young People. It also distributes the New Testament Recovery Version Bible through Bibles for New Zealand.

Student Support and Pastoral Care

Otago Boys' High School organises its pastoral care around a named team of staff, each with a defined role in supporting students.

  • House Deans (Scott Manson, Kelvin McCrone, Mark Alderton, and Dave Thomas): provide daily guidance and mentorship, and serve as a consistent point of contact for students inside and outside the classroom.
  • School Counsellors (James Howey and Rob Wither): offer free, confidential emotional and psychological support, covering areas including stress and anxiety, peer relationships, bullying, grief, and family transitions. Where more specialised care is needed, they connect students and families with external services.
  • SENCo – Special Educational Needs Coordinator (Lindy Marr): coordinates learning support for students with learning differences, high needs, and disabilities. She liaises with students, families, teachers, and external agencies, gathers information from previous schools and specialist reports, and develops personalised strategies to support access to the curriculum.
  • Form Teachers: act as a familiar daily point of contact for students throughout their time at the school.
  • Stymie: an encrypted, anonymous online platform through which students can confidentially report concerns such as bullying, self-harm, or harassment. Reports generate real-time alerts to designated staff.
  • Deputy Rector (Nic Sullivan): holds oversight of school culture and the pastoral team.
