History of our school

William Rose School was officially opened in 2003, after a long and valued history as North Rocks School for the Blind and North Rocks School for the Deaf.

As William Rose School, we continue to cater for student's individual sensory and special educational needs.

Our school was named after William (Bill) Rose, an inspirational educator of students with special needs.

His contribution and immeasurable giving is the real and lasting difference he made to the lives of so many, and it is to honour his work that our school bears his name.
