Dear Parents and Guardians,
Assalamu Alaikum Everyone.
I hope this message finds you well today. I am delighted to be appointed the new Principal of Iqra School starting Term Three. I have already been so welcomed to the school by wonderful staff and students who have gone out of their way to make sure I am well supported here at Iqra School. I have taught over two decades in a number of roles in educational leadership, including ACG Sunderland School and St. Cuthbert’s College. I have a passion for primary education, a commitment to inclusivity and a dedication to fostering a collaborative learning environment. I have gained invaluable experience raising students’ progress and improving outcomes for students. My values align seamlessly with the mission of Iqra School and I am eager to begin work alongside specialised staff, hard working teachers and wonderful students. The Board of Trustees have enabled me to have a wonderful transition with Dr. Stephen Kendall-Jones, and I am grateful for the smooth handover that has transpired.
It is a privilege and humbling to become part of the Iqra School community amongst the special character that only Iqra School can bring. Thank you so much for all the support already shown me. I am excited to start a new chapter here at Iqra School. Your engagement and cooperation are invaluable to me as we continue to cultivate a nurturing, respectful and enriching environment for all our students. Please pop in and say hello when you are next at Iqra School!
Kind regards,
Leanne Chartrand
Principal
Assalamu Alaikum and Kia Ora Koutou, IQRA School formerly known as IQRA Elementary is a state-integrated area school catering to students from year 1 to year 8. IQRA was established in 2016 by our proprietors Algoritmi Educational Trust.

Dear Parents,
We are excited to let you know that our Second-Hand Uniform Shop and our New Uniform Shop is open and available for all families. This initiative is a great way to recycle gently used school uniforms, offering affordable options for your children as they grow as well as new uniforms, unused and ready for children to wear.
Details of the Shop:
● Location: In the First Aid room, next to reception, Iqra School
● Opening Hours: Tuesdays 8:30am-9:30am and Thursday 8:30-90:30am
● Items Available: A variety of gently used uniforms, including shirts, trousers, skirts, dresses, and jumpers.
● Pricing: All items are priced around half of the full price of the uniforms at The Warehouse.
As you know we are transitioning from NZ Uniform to The Warehouse as our uniform provider. Most items are significantly discounted from NZ Uniform. A price list is below. Also a picture of the products and a link to purchase them online is attached.
We encourage all parents to consider donating any unused or outgrown school uniforms. This will not only help other families but also promote sustainability within our school community.
Donations can be dropped off during the opening hours above. If you would like to have the school sell your child’s uniform on your behalf, we will note your account details and you will receive 50% of the sale profit.
Thank you for your support, and we hope to see you in the shop soon!
Best regards,
Leanne Chartrand
Principal
Assalamu Alaikum IQRA Family,
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together. (Sahi Bukhari)
As we embrace the blessings of Ramadan, we are launching an exciting Class Competition to support the 7 orphans our school has sponsored for the past nine years. This is a chance for our students to race toward a noble cause while earning a special reward for their teamwork!
The Goal: $1,000 per Class
Each class is challenged to raise $1,000 for our global orphan sponsorship fund. To help achieve this, students will bring home a Sponsorship Envelope today. We encourage them to reach out to family and friends to help fill their envelopes with Sadaqah.
The Reward for the Winners:
The first class to reach the $1,000 goal will win:
A Uniform-Free Day!
A Special Fun Activity arranged by the Special Character Team and their Class Teacher.
This isn't just a competition; it is a lesson in Ihsan (excellence). Let’s see which class will lead the way in generosity this year!
Teachers will collect the envelopes daily and keep classes updated on their progress toward the "finish line."
Thank you for supporting your children in this journey of giving. Every dollar brings us closer to securing the future of an orphan in need.
Jazakumullah Khayran,
Special Character Department & School Management
