Schoolzine Acquires
School Stream
We’re excited to announce on 22nd December 2025, Schoolzine acquired School Stream. Both organisations share a long standing commitment to helping schools communicate clearly, confidently and in a way that strengthens community connections.
This alignment in values is at the heart of the transition, and ensures that every School Stream school will continue to be supported with care, stability and clarity.
School Stream has served many schools across Australia, New Zealand and globally with simple and accessible communication tools. Schoolzine has been doing the same for more than fifteen years, supporting schools with reliable communication channels and friendly, practical support.
Bringing School Stream into the Schoolzine family is a positive step for both communities, creating long term stability and a stronger foundation for future development, support and service reliability.
Welcome to the Schoolzine Family
We are very pleased to welcome School Stream schools into the Schoolzine community. Your school can continue using the School Stream platform exactly as you do now. There are no immediate changes to your access, setup or daily workflows.
Our priority is to ensure your transition feels simple, supported and steady. Throughout Term 1 2026 we will continue to share updates and keep you informed as we move through this process together.
A message from Melissa Bridson and Dan Dawson
