Our History

Stanmore Bay School was opened in February 1979 in time for the new school year.

More coming soon.

Kaumatua, Pat Ruka's perspective

North Shore kaumātua, Pat Ruka (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Paoa, Ngāti Wai Ngāti Whātua), visited our school in June 2020 to share his kōrero with a small group of staff and community members who have strong connections to Stanmore Bay School.

A link to this kōrero is coming soon.
