In the early 20th century, elite boys' schools fostered military cadets, encouraged martial virtue among those they saw as future defenders of the empire and nation, and prized toughness.

A New Plymouth school's new pump track is for everyone in the community to use - but teachers definitely dominated its official opening.

Bullied outcasts hit the textbooks alongside teen mums bouncing babies while in the next classroom youths facing juvie learn about sex in prison.

Mum donates 120 new ball gowns to the school she says has given her son back his future.
