About Freyberg High School
Freyberg High School is a state co-educational secondary school located in the Palmerston North, New Zealand suburb of Roslyn. Opening in 1955 as the city’s fourth state secondary school, Freyberg High School has a roll of 1169 students as of August 2018.
The school is located at the end of Freyberg Street, Palmerston North and is bordered by Skoglund Park on the east and Ross Intermediate School on the west. To the north are the netball courts of Vautier Park. Also present is the Freyberg Community Pool, which is open to the public for leisure.
The school was founded in 1955 and named for World War II hero and former Governor General, Bernard Freyberg. His name is reflected not only in the name of the school, but also of the school’s gymnasium, Lord Freyberg Memorial Gymnasium. Like most New Zealand state secondary schools built in the mid-1950s, Freyberg High School is of “Henderson-type” construction, with long single-storey classrooms blocks of timber construction interconnected by a central spine. Additional classroom facilities have been built over the years to aid in the growing student numbers.
Also, the school’s mascot and yearbook, which is handed to students at the end of each year, is known as the Salamander which was Freyberg’s nom de guerre during World War 2. The name given to him by Māori, Te Pou Hōia, is also reflected in the Māori name for the school.
In 2005, the school celebrated its 50th Jubilee, in 2015, celebrated its 60th Jubilee and in 2025 will celebrate their 70th Jubilee.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Adam Richard Sandler (born September 9, 1966) is an American actor, comedian, and filmmaker. He was a cast member on Saturday Night Live from 1990 to 1995, before going on to star in many Hollywood films, which have combined to earn more than $2 billion at the box office.[2][3] Sandler had an estimated net worth of $420 million in 2020, and signed a further four-movie deal with Netflix worth over $250 million.[4]
Sandler's comedic roles include Billy Madison (1995), Happy Gilmore (1996), The Waterboy (1998), The Wedding Singer (1998), Big Daddy (1999), Mr. Deeds (2002), 50 First Dates (2004), The Longest Yard (2005), Click (2006), Grown Ups (2010), Just Go with It (2011), Grown Ups 2 (2013), Blended (2014), Murder Mystery (2019) and Hubie Halloween (2020). He also voices Dracula in the first three films of the Hotel Transylvania franchise (2012–18).
Some of his films, mainly comedy films such as Jack and Jill (2011), have been widely panned, and Sandler is the holder of nine Golden Raspberry Awards and 37 Raspberry Award nominations, more than any other actor but Sylvester Stallone. Conversely, he has earned praise for his dramatic performances in the dramedy films Spanglish (2004), Reign Over Me (2007), Funny People (2009), and the auteur films such as Paul Thomas Anderson's Punch-Drunk Love (2002), Noah Baumbach's The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected) (2017), and the Safdie brothers' Uncut Gems (2019).[5]

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Please if your going to send your child here just don’t please, better if you send them to North Korea they will probably get more education there then they do at this school, honestly one of the worst schools I’ve ever seen teachers don’t care at all and the students at this school are the worst and teachers don’t care, students sell vape ect at the school and all they get at most is a one days suspension, kids are always fighting at the school and the teachers don’t care at all it’s almost like a juvenile detention centre, please just don’t send you child to this school rather check awatapu or queen Elizabeth both are way better than this school

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was good for the first few months I was here, then they started changing things in a bad way. They have changed the timetable so many times, it's impossible to get used to the new timetables each year.
