It was established in 1927 by the amalgamation of Heretaunga School Hastings (New Zealand) and Hurworth School (Wanganui). The school is founded on five main "cornerstones", which are Academic, Cultural, Christian Dimension, Boarding Life and Sport. The Christian Dimension being very strong at Hereworth, the school has its own chapel and chapel choir in which the whole school attends services four times a week. FoundingIt was founded in 1927 by H. E. Sturge, who was the headmaster of Heretaunga school at the time. When he realised that his school was losing pupils, he travelled over to Hurworth School, which had the same problem. Mr. Sturge died a few years later from a heart attack while on a plane to Australia. 'Anti-Bubble Wrapping' PolicyIn 2008 the then headmaster, Ross Scrymgeour spoke out against the 'bubble-wrapping' of school-age children. He suggested that kids are becoming more and more protected from risks, restricting them from going out of their comfort zone and taking responsible risks.[1] HistoryHereworth was started in 1927 and has since then become a school that ranges from year 0 to year 8. It is one of only seven private boys schools in New Zealand. The schools that it was born from, Hurworth and Heretaunga, were also private schools. Many new facilities have been added to Hereworth School and in 2008 the grounds won the 'Best Garden' award. As of 2007, students and staff have been able to use the modern technology block.
