With your basket and my basket the people will thrive.

Welcome to our website, have a look and learn about the exciting learning opportunities and activities we provide so every student is,

• Actively engaged in meaningful, relevant  learning across the curriculum

• Progresses and discovers their potential

• Develops the skills and competencies needed to be a lifelong learner

• Can communicate with and contribute to their family, whanau and community

Rosehill School is a positive and valuing learning environment for students aged 5 to 21 with special needs.

We work in partnership with families and whānau to develop active, positive and personalised learning pathways for every student. We have high expectations and take pride in the progress our students make.

We provide real and meaningful learning opportunities across the New Zealand Curriculum including education outside the classroom.

Our speech language therapists’, occupational therapists’ and physiotherapists’ work in collaboration with teachers and teacher aides to ensure all our students are able to communicate effectively, relate well to others, are as mobile and independent as possible and reach their potential in literacy, numeracy, physical education, health, the arts, technology, science, social science and Te Reo.  We offer a wide range of education opportunities outside the classroom.  

We have classes at our base school, many satellite classes based in mainstream schools in Papakura and surrounding districts.

For our young adult students we have Te Ara Poutama, a modern community based facility where students have access to a wide range of programmes,  including work experience, aimed at  preparing them for life after school.

We work in partnership with families to ensure their opinions are heard and they have access to any support they may need. We have a social worker and counsellor to help with this.
