Our STARS are the key learner qualities that reflect our vision for our students.  At Hampden Street we pride ourselves on our whanautanga, which is relationships with students, whānau and the wider community. This ensures that we offer a rich and diverse programme that best represents our learning community.

We work hard to inspire and support tamariki to develop the knowledge, skills, agency and competencies they need to flourish in life.  We provide innovative and creative learning programmes, collaborative teaching and learning, extensive EOTC programmes,  STEM and Discovery programmes and opportunities for exploring our environment. Our students enjoy diverse opportunities that spark their enthusiasm and develop a wide range of skills.

Hampden Street School is an innovative primary school for new entrants to Year 6 students in central Nelson.
