I hate cobham

The teachers dont do anything about your problems unless they like you or your not coloured
Many rules were set for us year 8s in 2024 that dont apply to anyone in 2025, we weren’t allowed to sign the shirts we bought with our own money
Phones weren't allowed at camp even though year 7s were allowed and past year 8s were also allowed
This school is advertised as amazing but it sucks many druggies and hood rats and overall just a bad place to grow up
We all had to constantly worry if we were going to get jumped at school and the teachers treated us way harder than the kids who never showed up, never listened and were rude

my experience at cobham

1 - the old cloak bays sucked ASS, and I was in a class where there was a changing room connected to the cloak bay and we had to change in their (the door had a GLASS window at the top of it and the teacher (Nadia Van Vliet) thought it would be smart to put (FALLING) posters on there)

2 - The students sucked, homophobia was EVERYWHERE. no matter what you did you would always be mocked unless you were in 'that' clique

3 - most teachers flopped, 99% of them you can tell took the job just for money and not for a passion of teaching. they can all die and rot

overall : DON'T GO HERE, it'll seem all friendly in the first few seconds but the longer your there the worse its gonna get for you

cobham is horrible

Worst school in New Zealand was bullied constantly and the teachers did nothing about it. The bullying here is untolerable and is unavoidable in any class.

Drugs? Maybe

School wasn't the best. Was offered drugs once, saw a kid get beaten up and the cloak bays were absolute shite. At least the teacher let us have a water fight that one time.
