Welcome to Stanhope Road School, I am incredibly privileged to be the Principal of this wonderful school. We have an amazing group of teachers who are dedicated to providing excellent learning opportunities for our children to ensure they reach their true potential.
Our teachers are supported by our hard-working teacher aides, office staff, landscape gardener and property manager who help create wonderful learning environments for our children. We are a unified, collaborative team of professionals who are dedicated to celebrating success in all forms, being good Friends, Learners and Guardians. Our Board of Trustees and Parent Support Group are incredibly active and provide our school with numerous resources to improve the outcomes for our children.
As a school we are very proud of our diverse and multicultural community. At our last Cultural Parade at the end of 2020, there were 65 nations represented. Our families demonstrate a healthy support to the school and work strongly in partnership with the school, progressing children’s learning goals. Our school vision embodies who are we and our aspirations for our students.
We look forward to your children joining our Stanhope Road School Whanau.

Alert Level 3 Update
Mon Feb 15 09:54amAlert Level 3 Information
What will the next three days look like:
It certainly feels strange going from a long Level 1 summer to a wet day in Level 3. Although we have been preparing for this possibility, we all had our fingers crossed and were optimistic that we would not be at Alert Level 3 again.
As a school we are committed to keeping things as stable as we can so that children and families feel secure and connected.
At school we have now reverted back to our Alert Level 3 operating model, effective from this morning. This means that we have a small number of staff and students on site following Level 3 protocols (distancing, heightened hygiene etc.) All other children and staff will be learning from home for the next three days at least.
Online Home Learning
Your classroom teachers will be in contact with you today to make sure that you and your children have the information and access you need.
Our goal is communicate clearly and timely and try to make things as simple as possible for parents.
At this stage we will not be sending school owned devices as we are hoping to only be at Alert Level 3 for three days only. However, if this is extended we will be able to provide devices.
Ministry of Education Learning Packs
We have a number of learning packs available for collection to assist at home. Any families who need these are asked to be at the Harris Road gate between 2.00-2.30pm today or 9.00-9.30am Tuesday morning to collect one.
Stay safe and take care.
Kia kaha

Important Alert Level 3 Update
Sun Feb 14 08:05pmAlert Level 3
This evening we learnt that Auckland is moving to Alert Level 3 from 11.59pm this evening for the next three days.
This means school will be closed on Monday 15th, Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th February and students will learn from home.
The vast majority of our staff will be working from home and we will only have a very minimal number of staff on site at any time. Tomorrow the teaching staff will be at school preparing to deliver Home Learning programmes.
Home Learning: Our full ‘Home Learning’ Programme will begin on Tuesday, please look for communication from your child’s teacher via Seesaw or email. However your teachers will be in contact with you tomorrow morning.
We will have capacity for a small number of children whose parents are ESSENTIAL WORKERS. You must register your child’s attendance for this. Any children who arrive at school will be supervised from 8.30-3.00 only.
Please complete the link below as soon as possible, if you need to register your child as you are an ESSENTIAL WORKER (complete for each child please).
Communication going forward:
Whilst the announcement has been very sudden, we have been preparing for this. We don’t have any more details to share as we are awaiting more clarification from the Ministry of Education. We will communicate via email and the school app as more information comes to hand.
