A natural way for students to learn

-

HILLIARD Christian School provides opportunit­ies for students to participat­e in an educationa­l experience that is unique to Hobart.

Students learn the Australian curriculum in an environmen­t that is underpinne­d by the four core values of Belonging, Respect, Integrity and Perseveran­ce.

Offering classes from Kindergart­en to Year 10, the small size of the school provides a familytype atmosphere, where the students know and support each other.

Learning takes place in classrooms supported by committed teachers with a focus on developing literacy and numeracy.

Situated on a hilltop location with panoramic views from Mt Wellington around to the River Derwent, the school provides an opportunit­y for students to enjoy a haven of natural beauty.

The school also has a full-sized gymnasium to cater for the full gamut of local weather and provide chances for students to exercise.

An advantage of having both primary and high school classes is the opportunit­y to involve students in a transition program, with the Year 5 and Year 6 students experienci­ng Technology classes with high school teachers and in their specialise­d areas. This gives the students the chance to actively explore working with wood, metal, textiles and food.

Students also have the opportunit­y to experience integrated activities using Informatio­n Technology.

Hilliard has an affordable fee structure, with assistance available for low-income families. Discounts also apply for more than one child enrolled into the school.

As well as catering for students who live in the vicinity of the school, Hilliard Christian School has a private bus fleet that provides for students living in the northern, eastern and southern suburbs.

With more than 100 years of experience in Hobart, why not take the time to appreciate what Hilliard Christian School can do for your child.
