Hamilton's Fraser High School (HFHS) is the second largest secondary school in Hamilton, New Zealand. The school began in 1920 as Hamilton Technical Day School (later amended to Hamilton's Technical High School in 1924). From its central city site on the Garden Place Hill, now occupied by Wintec, the school was an integral part of the growth and development of Hamilton. For the next 50 years, many of the pupils went on to become influential commercial, political, sporting and cultural leaders in Hamilton.

“A sure proportion of rogue and dunce finds its way into every school and requires a cruel share of time, and the gentle teacher, who wished to be a Providence to youth, is grown a martinet, sore with suspicions; knows as much vice as the judge of a police court, and his love of learning is lost in the routine of grammars and books of elements.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
