Principal’s message

It gives me great pleasure to welcome new students and their families to Stanmore Public School. Our school has a long, proud history, it has stood on the lands of the Gadigal people since its establishment in 1884. Today we continue our rich history as we prepare students for exciting futures in a dynamic world.

We offer a vast range of opportunities within and beyond the classroom including specialist Music and Drama programs as well as a choice of community languages including Mandarin and Greek. Our Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Program is a flourishing example of what can be achieved in partnership with our community and our comprehensive sporting programs allow students to develop their skills and compete at the highest levels. Extra-curricular programs include band, strings ensembles, choirs, drama, environmental groups, chess, art, computer coding and tennis coaching.

We have an outstanding team of teachers and support staff who are committed to high expectations for all students. Strong high potential and gifted education programs as well as well-developed learning and support processes ensure that every student experiences opportunities to achieve excellence and thrive in their learning.

We work in partnership with parents, carers and our community for the benefit of our students and the school provides opportunities for families to connect in a thriving community. Our Parents and Citizens Association meets monthly and supports the development of our school and community and the school partners with TASK, our on-site out of school hours and vacation care service to meet the needs of families.

Welcome to Stanmore Public School, in enrolling your child here, you have made a great choice. We look forward to sharing in your child’s learning journey with you as we present them with opportunities to thrive and have a positive impact on our world.
