The men - all now in their 60s and 70s - were remanded on continued bail.
They face dozens of charges, including indecent assault against a boy under 16 and some against boys under 12.
The police investigation into historical sexual offending dating back to the 1980s is continuing.

Dilworth s former chaplin, Ross Douglas Browne, appears at Auckland District Court on historical child sex abuse charges. The charges relate to two complainants and the alleged offending happened in the 1990s and 2002, while Browne was a chaplain at the school. Former Dilworth teacher and housemaster Rex McIntosh initially faced three charges of indecent assault and was further charged with four counts of indecent assault in December. As well as teaching at Dilworth, McIntosh also taught at Ruawai College for 16 years and was recently a relief teacher at Pakuranga, St Kents, Ormiston Senior and Botany Downs colleges.
